This Was Always Going To Happen (Solution is Medicare for All) - Resistor Vic



Dec 30, 2025 #resistance #HealthcareCrisis #MedicareForAll
Health insurance premiums are spiking — not just for ACA plans, but for employer plans and private insurance too. So what’s really happening?

The Affordable Care Act slowed premium growth when it was fully enforced. But once its guardrails were weakened and healthcare consolidation went unchecked, rising costs were inevitable. The end of subsidies didn’t cause this crisis — it exposed it.

This video explains why the system was always going to break, and why Medicare for All is the only solution that can survive elections.
