US Medicare For All is no pie in the sky idea. Taiwan actually went with it.

"Medicare for All" is a great name because it's a specific commitment. This is easier to distinguish from the GOP's spurious commitment to "universal access" (i.e. health care for anyone who can afford it).

Let's not get into another situation where we elect people who promise us "universal health care" but instead burden us with a sick joke like the Affordable Care Act.


ACA isn't a sick joke for the millions of people who got coverage thanks to it.
Unlike the "economic anxiety" meme, this post is a glaring example of elitism.

It's elitist to criticize the $14,700 out of pocket maximums for a family? And that can easily be hit with something simple like childbirth or an appendectomy.
