The biggest problem with our health care system is that it's more a sickness care system than a health care system. We need to move beyond just taking care of sickness, to actually prioritizing creating health. My plan: marianne2020.com/issues/heal…

First we repeal the $2T dollar 2017 Tax Bill that gave 83 cents of every $ to the richest individuals & corporations (put back in the middle class tax cuts). Stop corporate subsidies like the $26B we gave to fossil fuel companies last year. 3% tax on billionaires, 2% on over $50M

You say what you want to do, but you don't say how you're going to do it.

If you are just voicing this old news you need to."study up" before pronouncements. Methinks you should stay away from policy positions and keep your sympathetic.and insightful statements up front. Don't go deep because you don't have the knowlege base.

It's funny, the questions people ask. How do we pay for this & that or we can only make small changes. That's BS, nobody questions how much it cost to send military action to Iran. Or how much it costs for American farmers paying higher prices now that Trump has tariffed China.

Also, I'm a label reader in the grocery store. The salt, sugar, corn starch, corn syrup, and chemicals I can't even spell, in most of our product are poisoning our food supply. They don't do this in Europe. It's like we're purposely make sick to reap the profit of treatment.

You need to research the French system: big point: cut the administrative cost from US 20% to 5% on all billing. They don't have malpractice insurance. Every hospital knows the cost for a patient upfront.

You need to tell the US people how the french system is more cost effective. There government is not defining which Doctor they can see. Have the courage to go into the financial details. your comment below is not cutting it.
