Trump says he's talking to Democrats about direct health care payment plan

41. Exactly.

That is what I was trying to say, less eloquently.

The problem is, the angry part of their brains just shut down when they hear that we all chip in for the good of everyone.
I blame the media, government agencies, the insurance companies and legislators for this. No one seems to want to take the time to explain it clearly. The advantages would be mind blowing to the American people. But, the fear of something different coupled with the insurance company-driven misrepresentation of it is what’s standing in the way.

Heck, there were some things about signing up for Medicare back in 2019 that were never explained to me adequately. And I’m paying for it today. Literally.

I think the time is ripe for Universal Healthcare. It won’t happen, but I think the latest increases in premiums for everyone (both ACA and MCR) are tipping the balance just enough for people to cry uncle.
