People can’t afford private health insurance. This is what happened when Obama trashed our health care system.
Just wait until Congress passes Medicare For All. You ain’t seen nothin yet.
Yeah the cost of insurance did go up.
But people are poorer because of the lack of jobs.
I have relatives in Arkansas who watched their factories closed and their towns decimated.
So it’s a double whammy. They could afford the increase if they had decent jobs.
But if you completely open your markets to countries that have large amounts of surplus labor, you kill your own employment.
If you trade with countries that have lower wages, you risk driving your wages down to their level.
If you trade with countries that have no social networks, no environment laws, no worker safety laws, you find your jobs leave your country and go to where there are fewer restrictions and thus fewer costs.
