Berner fans now tell me an NHS type system is the only universal system they would consider
When you point out the failings of that system they immediately blame the Tories w/o irony.
As if Donald Trump wouldn’t have been in charge of this system here
Democrats overall win more votes both in the presidential and congressional races but still have an up hill climb in our electoral system.
Building a system that is vulnerable if they were in charge is building a system for only 50% capacity
So how does this make sense
There is a lot of great universal systems around the world.
Germany, Australia, France, Singapore and so forth
To bring up any of these that are ranked higher and less cost - seem to stump them because each of these have a private element and includes a level of choice
If you can afford it- there is some cost to the user in most
In Australia the fact that Hugh Jackman maybe opting for private insurance bothers them.
Although Australia automatically covers every citizen
This feature is awesome for its universality but also realistic
What I am understanding from them its less about universal healthcare in their love of single-payer and more about social engineering.
They want to aim for the idea of a rich person sitting in the same waiting room as them- as an objective even if it means building weaknesses in
At this point in what seems like a million conversations I have had with Berners whose clear aim is social engineering and less healthcare
- that rich people still have money and doctors take money.
Removing private insurance doesn’t remove private billing. We have that now
