I agree although the racket is more like a trillion. It is not just the insurance (payors) but also all the brokers and other rent seekers. I think there is 0% chance of nationalized health care in the US. Look at Obamacare; it didn't really work and took forever to get passed and most of the regulations have been rolled back. There are other things that I think could fix our health care and actually get passed and stick but Medicare For All isn't it. Too many in the US associate socialism with communism and think it unfair.
- unethical_ban 7y agoThat mindset is a bit self-defeating, isn't it? I wonder if people thought we would have public schooling in the country 150 years ago, or that blacks could go to school with whites 100 years ago. Or that Germany would be the largest economy in Europe as a democratic republic, 70 years ago. Things take time.
