Well, congratulations, DU...

344. That isn't what they said, if you feel that is what they meant that is your option to flesh it out

with such an understanding, I do not so elect nor am I responsible to nor am I seeing what the basis of such an interpretation is when the poster is clearly telling voters they do not want their votes and essentially to fuck off if you don't want what is given.

I think you are over extending your account on how much evolution applies to legislation yourself. Social Security has been less inclusive of fields and has been less comprehensive but at It's core program worked the same way it does now, at no point was it a mandatory private for profit system that slowly turned into what it was now. It was added to yes, eligible occupation has been opened up, sure but this pretense these programs just become something other than what they start out is not very strongly supported, and to be taken as more platitude to inspire hope and beg for patience than fact.

They said what they said, your interpretation requires a lot more fleshing out and words unsaid than mine and I tend to think simpler is better.

As for your argument that you'd stead for their's.

Yes Social Security and Medicaid have changed and become more comprehensive with time, no neither has evolved into a structurally distinct program than they began. Sure as hell neither were private, for profit systems that became public systems that is a con job that proves once again that a small kernel of truth stretched enough becomes a big ass lie.

Hell, I bet you'd scream bloody murder if someone dare outline an evolution that actually reflects the structure and nature of the law that makes it work to enshrine the insurance cartel as the for profit gatekeeper and cost increasingly shared with consumers.

Hell, some get puffy about CBO projections being a more likely projection than their statements of faith. Hell, the reality is subsidies will have diminishing impact and will have to be addressed and a fight to be avoided.

There are a shit load of moving parts and a lot are a hodgepodge of things not designed to work in concert, I do not think the comparisons to other efforts are particularly good or accurate even if fair marketing.
