not so happy for myself. I, too am an advocate of medicare for all. I am uninsured. My state did not expand medicaid, therefore, health insurance premiums for me (silver plan) are over $500 a month. $6,000 a year, I can't afford that, that's close to my housing fo a month. I'll take the fine. Fuck my republican governor & anyone who voted for him.
