Medicare4All

Hey, youngs. Let me tell you something:

In the olden days, before the internet, all the suits would say, "America has the best Health Care in the world!" It wasn't true, but most everybody believed the suits because most everybody had never been to a different country and wouldn't know any better. America was best at everything, end of debate. Anyone rude enough to call that a lie was dismissed as simply unpatriotic.

You don't hear that line anymore. Why? Because nowadays people would respond with, "Wait, what? Have you never heard of Europe? Canada? The UK? Australia?"

So instead, now the suits say the richest country in the world can't afford it. That's not true, either. And they know it. They should be laughed out of the room. We already pay more than other countries do.

And those other countries don't have big co-pays and deductibles. You don't lose your insurance if you lose your job. You don't have to quiz your emergency room anaesthesiolgist to make sure they're "in network." Who wants choices like those?

Medicare4All, y'all.
