All advanced democracies in the world have universal healthcare except us. Hundreds of thousands of Americans die every year because of inadequate healthcare & for one reason only: the greed of the private insurance industry & the willingness of our political system to play ball.

So stop blaming Dems for us not having this. It's Repubs in power turning time to the 1950's

Unfortunately 40% of the American public is tirelessly intent on retarding our democracy . I have little faith our demcracy is going to persevere much less progress to the point where Affordable Healthcare for all is a reality.

And Dems have been running on it since the 80’s. People still believe them. It’s incredible.

Americans die from eating processed foods daily.

Our political system is owned by corporations (pharma, oil, weapons, etc). Nothing will change until that's addressed.

Everything that is wrong with this country can be traced back to money in politics. The lobbying system should be abolished, and all contributions to candidates/elected officials should be PUBLIC!!!

It is also true that mental health is not accesible on demand. There is a wait, sometimes for months, to be seen by a specialist. Where can I contact you to send information about our signature program “Emotional Health Awareness” I’d love for it to be available for many. Thanks!

Ask a vet how “universal” heath care works for them. Even countries who have it end up getting private insurance because they can’t get in or get quality care.
