(146,287 posts)There is no Medicare for All plan that can be passed in Congress at this time. Therefore, there is no plan to discuss. Once Democrats have strong majority control of both houses of Congress and a President in the White House, a plan can be designed that will pass and will be adopted.
Parts of Bernie's plan might be in that plan. I don't know yet, and neither does anyone else.
Before any plan gets adopted, though, the general public must approve of it and support it. For that to happen, they will have to understand it in terms that make sense to them and that can be compressed into a small enough space to be presented in all media and short enough for people to bother reading or listening to it.
Without strong public approval, no plan will succeed. The details of how it is implemented will be of interest to those of us who are willing to look closely at those details, but we are not a large enough group to pass anything.
No, I will not stop, thank you very much. I'm part of the conversation, and will continue to be.
