Who would support single payer universal health care or Medicare for all?

You'll always find the uninformed in and out of heath care, but what you will also find in healthcare are the persons who have provided under their own license the kind of care found everywhere from the doctor's office to the ICU and emergency room.

We understand what happens to patients in that revolving door, who profits the most from insufficient revolving doors, and why it costs the consumer so much.

The patients have to be their own best advocate for staying healthy because the model initially known as "health maintenance" never maintained health, but earned profits for private insurers, based on manipulated outcomes that just drove up the expense.

The giant insurance companies that earned a low profit margin in insuring homes and property, damned well made it up in spades based on the portion of health care insurance under that big umbrella. Again, they save, because the claims for care are controlled. The patient can't do a damned thing about that.

The giant pharmaceutical companies lobbied their way around competition and lower drug costs to consumers by controlling what was introduced on the market to "maintain health" and reducing drugs that come off patent to be produced generically.

Giant health care systems who by up physician practices and become self insured have managed to control who gets treated and who reimburses services to achieve profit margins, while lobbying each state to classify their health care system as "non-profit". They don't pay property taxes or for the police and fire and public works surrounding their giant campus, but they control giant health care markets.

We're getting fucked over pretty much every day by this nonsense.

SINGLE PAYER/Medicare for All is the answer to this nonsense. True health maintenance is a reachable goal because there will be millions and millions of workers who are covered as a right, not out of desperation to get any lousy job just for "health care".

Strongly coinciding with this reality under Bernie Sanders are sustainable industries, fair trade and labor negotiations to sustain REAL jobs. This invigorates and stimulates middle class growth.

Next?
