It’s a path that has a very realistic implementation because all the systems are there already.
Name another more realistic path besides leaving things the way they are and keeping f…ing over the country with outrageous costs.
- bhupy 5y ago> All the systems are there already And all the systems are there already to implement a Swiss-style system (universal private healthcare with an individual mandate, sliding cost subsidies, and protection for pre-existing conditions). The only difference between Switzerland and the US is that the health insurance is predominately purchased on the individual market and is decoupled from employment. That’s the realistic path: decoupling health insurance from employment. In fact, all the systems are there already.
