Fine Piece On The Importance Of Ensuring The Imperfect ACA Moves Forward

[patrice]

6. Going forward with the Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act is a good approach to healing the

fragmentation of the working- and lower- social economic classes, which fragmentation is essentially the result of what has ultimately come to be corporate-personhood and, thus, the cause of increasing oppression. Until there is CLASS solidarity, we will have little more than temporary "victories" against those who oppress us. Moving the PP & ACA forward is a good opportunity to address economic-class solidarity as a means of fighting the class warfare that is being waged against us.

Here are a couple of other good sources on the PP & ACA and also on HR 676 Improved and Expended Medicare for All:

He is on several other blogs than the one linked here, if you want to explore additional aspects of Medicine and Social Justice).

The Robert Woods Johnson Foundation also publishes on HCR, though it's more centrist than the two sources above:
