My father died from progressive supranuclear palsy, which is a disease with no meaningful treatment or cure. He had great "health insurance", but truth be told, nothing will ever be done to solve these diseases with low ROI due to such a small community has it.

No amount of state based initiatives could have saved his life. Only real, deep, public investment in cures vs treatment at the Federal level could do this. We need ouf Federal Government to do its job.
My son is autistic. His support was left to state based solutions. They were underfunded, understaffed and we went years without services.
There are short cut artists that would have you believe that state based solutions are the correct path forward, they are wrong.
States are stretched to the breaking point. As currency users, they are struggling with diminished tax base, revenues and ultimately left to austerity

Not sure folks REALLY get this or worse, even WANT to get it. They were too lazy to dig into the #MMT efforts thousands of progressive activists have devoted their lives to. NO, these folks make enemies of the activists, save for a few bad faith actors behaving as opportunists.
There is a lot of lying in describing the positions of the #MMT activists who have fought desperately to explain the issues only to be denigrated and the use of emotional outbursts and slander to cancel people fighting for economic justice. Which includes Healthcare as a right.
