Universal coverage doesn’t care about state boundaries. Boundaries are meaningless at that point. Bernie’s going to “make a deal” with the hospitals too...

Savings accounts etc are all noise. Someone is going to pay for the 25% Trump says he’s going to cover with the government paying. One way or another that will be extracted from those who actually do pay for their health care.

You are lost in the trees and can’t see the forest.

If you want to improve the poor’s access to health care, lower the cost of providing it. Giving them “free” insurance won’t do that.

We already do—it’s call Medicaid and there’s not a presidential candidate running who would end the program.

And yes, I would wean them off of Medicaid as well, but again—nobody else has that on the table.
