Bonus Reason: When you insurance company covers you for something that is already covered, you aren't getting additional care. You're getting an additional bill. That's called being ripped off.

2/2 The system works when you don't have insurance companies charging for duplicative coverage, undermining the "single" part of single-payer. This is the monopsony market type from 200 level econ. That's why it works and why it should ban duplicative coverage.

"Universal" isn't the same as "single-payer." Medicare for All is single-payer health insurance. It is only somewhat "universal." The universal part would be the part that applies to everyone. Namely, that we would all be insured. If there is another "payer," then it won't be single-payer. 1/2

Democrats time the good policies to hit after they lose to Republicans. Republicans go to their state and say they secured whatever funds they actually voted against for re-election. It's awesome... Democrats need to stop bringing their best potluck dishes to the gun fight.

You are talking about the status quo. I am talking about creating a true single-payer system. In a single-payer system, there would be no option for duplicative coverage. That meana your insurance company can't scam you for things that are already covered.

We could have had Bernie Sanders. Twice. We could have healthcare instead of platitudes. We could have a Federal jobs garauntee instead of a Liz Cheney BFF. We could've held Israel accountable instead of another from the genocidal administration. We could have immigration reform instead of a cop.

Pay teachers a fair wage. Pay paraprofessionals who help support our kids a fair wage. Make sure our schools are safe, clean, warm, and dry.

I think it would be good to find more ways to inform men about their behavior. Unfortunately, I think that another underreported form of sexual harassment and violence is that against young boys. I don't know anyone who hasn't been sexually harassed. No wonder men think its normal. It shouldn't be.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

We need to ask ourselves why we would take advice from Republican operatives. The Bulwark are suddenly our best friends when it makes no sense. They supported Bush Jr. Don't be fooled by these people. www.levernews.com/bulwark-neoc...

It’s Not A Bulwark. It’s A Plot.
The former GOP operatives behind The Bulwark helped sell Democrats a losing strategy. Now they’re positioning themselves to shape the party’s 2028 nominee.
