I tell you right now. If you are dreaming that people that have company backed health care are going to give that up for Medicare for All or even Medicare buyin, then you need to think again.

What Medicare buyin would do is help individuals that are self employed or who run small companies get affordable healthcare coverage for themselves and employees. That would be hugely beneficial to the country as a whole as it would encourage creative people to take risks starting up new ideas instead of stay with a job for health insurance coverage.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
