LIVE NOW on Politics Done Right - Single-payer Medicare for All must be a litmus test for Democrats

Single-payer Medicare for All must be a litmus test for Democrats in 2020

Today's Topic:
The Democratic Party is an all-inclusive party. It supports various ideas. It is important to note that while it supports various ideas it also must have inalienable principles. These include equal access to success, civil rights, worker rights, and much more. It does not require rocket science to understand that healthcare rights must be one. And the definition of healthcare rights is Medicare for All. And the private sector must never have veto rights any of our inalienable rights.

In that light, it is imperative that going forward that Medicare for All is a litmus test for every Democrat running for office. Requiring support also forces candidates to educate the masses in contrast to the misinformation that will continue to come from the healthcare industrial complex and corrupt corporatist politicians.

1. I expect any Democrat running for national office to have good ideas about improving on ACA...

...and those could be something other than a resounding hell-yeah on Medicare-For-All. Because the bill just revealed is NOT "the definition of healthcare rights"; it's just a framework that needs work from all Democrats and even all parties.

It's not in shape yet to be a litmus test.

2. Good grief. No. Just no.

3. No, that's absurd

Universal healthcare for all could be a litmus test, perhaps. Not the specific "Medicare for all" approach.

7. No. This is divisive.

We are barely hanging onto what we have. We need to fight for the ACA, keep it and improve it.

Litmus tests are wrong. The post itself says that we are an all-inclusive party. That rules out litmus tests. If we must fight the misinformation coming from the health care industry, we must also fight the misinformation coming from the left of our own party. If the left wants to help with health care, they will join the fight to protect the ACA.
