MontanaFarmer's JournalThe biggest misfortune tonight, IMO,
is that John Hickenlooper, Marianne Williamson, Andrew Yang, and Eric Swalwell were on the stage and Steve Bullock wasn't. He won't be the nominee, either, but would/ will add more than any of those folks to a dem debate.
On healthcare, I wonder if the MFA-ACA improvement
Debate will become more nuanced as the field gets winnowed down? It's so hard to break through right now, due to limited time at the mic, that candidates have to distill their views down to a pretty basic "support or oppose" position on MFA. I am a proponent of single payer, always have been, but I feel like we will need to have an intervening step between our current situation and getting where we need to be. Medicare as the public option, letting wage earners buy in for their dependents when it makes sense, giving a good public option to entrepreneurs, farmers, small business owners, etc. I just think folks with good insurance through work will, at a minimum, need to see a public system function for awhile, rather than just forcing them in on day 1.
