Obamacare not enough, so some in labor want single-payer system

14. And the best way too get a single payer system is

Get rid of the republicans in congress! Until we can reduce the number of republicans who will fight tooth and nail against a single payer system, things won't change. It's the reason we could not get it this time, republicans were against it, and even a enough dems were, so we would never have gotten it passed in congress. What we have now is the building block for such a system, and putting more democrats in congress while taking republicans out is the only way that is going to happen.

Sure some democrats who get elected might not vote for it, but we have a far better chance of getting it than if we allow republicans to gain seats, and if we don't get everyone out to vote there is a good chance that could happen.

I say vote in democrats, and if they don't do their job, vote them out in the next primary, and put in those who will do the job, but sitting out the elections in November will only hurt, not help. The only ones who get helped if we don't vote are the republicans, and we sure as hell don't need to help them.
