Joe Biden's health plan looks like the winner

[Celerity]

49. I am living atm in a country (Sweden) that has HC similar to MFA, and grew up with the NHS in the UK

I understand that a type of universal healthcare is a far better system, at most every level. But I am cynical realist, despite my young age. The US will not pass it. Too many trillions in profit at stake. The first-past-the-post majoritarian single member district American system means no proportional representation, so once the centre of political gravity has been moved to the right enough, and the system gamed and captured by the RW, then it is dead in the water, as the votes are not there from the opposing Party (us Democrats.) Too many centrists and moderates in our caucus (we have NO choice there, the Rethugs have gamed the system via gerrymandering and systemic voter suppression so only mods and centrists can get elected in the swing pink/purple/red districts), plus a large part of the population has been gaslit for decades to think they are getting the best deal in the world, when the vast majority are getting ripped off and millions die either far too early and/or completely unnecessarily, plus crushed economically by the sheer expenses/debt incurred.

The only way I see it being addressed is when true systemic collapse (across the entire economy, not just limited to HC) starts to occur. At current rates of cost increase and total outlays, that will occur, as it is unsustainable over the long term event horizon.
