Laughable. Medicare for all is a horrible idea. She intends to take us straight into the British nightmare of national healthcare. That’s all single payer is.

I have a member of my extended family who works for a BC/BS partner. One of the problems Harris is going to have is that according to him, BC/BS employs nearly as many otherwise unemployable people who are members of designated victim groups as the Government does.

First she is going to have to solve the conundrum of how to do this without putting millions of her own supporters out on the street.

Well, the NHS is the most popular thing in the UK, so I don't know that "nightmare" is quite the right word.

They have different priorities, which the NHS is designed to address. To the extent possible within a fixed budget, they address most of the people's priorities, most of the time.

What's a nightmare is $22 trillion in debt to pay for everything for everyone, with no budget and therefore no control over expenses. Now look, I favor a private sector, where people can buy whatever services they want, like they pay for boob jobs now.

But the fact is that the resource extraction machine that has been created by hospitals, payers, and drug companies is NOT aligned with Americans' preferences, and they are (eventually) going to use voting to destroy it.

All I am saying is that, since what we have now is going to end, that people other than communists should be thinking about what comes next.
