This brings up one of things I resent about Bernie's campaign - his miseducation of the American left about universal health care. Single-payer is the least common system of the many countries with UHC not what "everyone else has" as Bernie had often carelessly claimed
His obsession with single-payer even though there are systems rated as more efficient and effective has damaged what we have, the ACA, encouraging voters to stay home in 2010 to punish the Dems for the ACA. Idiotic.
He has opposed reforms to the ACA because he wants it to fail. Meanwhile, the Courts are packed with judges hostile to any form of universal health care who will gladly invalidate anything he passes after trashing the ACA.
The net result of Bernie's advocacy for health care is the 2010 loss of the House and Senate, the election of Donald Trump, a misinformed claque of cultists who won't defend the ACA, and a federal judiciary packed with people who will declare any UHC unconstitutional
He could not have done more harm if he were trying and it's all because he is merely a sloganeer with no policy credentials or accomplishments.
