Washington isn’t here for our health
There are lots of ways to create Medicare for all. Build on the work of others in Massachusetts, Denmark, Canada or any other industrialized nation — they have used it for years. We are the only troglodyte.
We waste untold hours and tax-funded salaries of House and Senate reps on internecine “revision” when the underlying motivation and message is to finger Obama.
Interestingly enough, some of us already have single-payer: the old, your president, your congressional reps.
Why do they get Champagne tax-funded health services while in office and into retirement?
We get choice: access to the emergency room.
Something amiss here?
