And this is what Americans are beginning to understand… There’s no good reason why Americans don’t have universal healthcare like they have in every other advanced democracy. Some politicians would have you believe “it’s complicated.” But it isn’t complicated. It’s corrupt.
This one time, as I was leaving the doctor’s office in Germany and they knew I was American the front desk quipped, “We’ll send you the bill.” I was like sure, okay — and then the staff burst out laughing. German joke! There’s no bill, not like in America. Ha ha! HA! 🙄😆

The constitution defers this to the States through the 10th Amendment. I wish you people would educate yourselves.

You'll end up with a better legacy by bowing out now and endorsing Kennedy, rather than staying in and having the DNC enforce your fealty pledge to Biden. But hey, cupcake, it's your legacy. Feel free to shit it up a second time (like you did when you endorsed Biden in 2020).

Are doctors going to volunteer their time for free? Or is the government going to steal more of our money? And then tell us what we can eat, and drink, and do because they're in charge of our health.

And you lost me... there are very good reasons why this isn't feasible here.

Any plan for our corrupt food industry? Our excessive use of pesticides in agriculture, along with all the ultra processed junk food is the root of chronic disease in American people. We fix our food problem and universal health care is cake 🧐

Only Canada has single-payer healthcare, and that consumes most government budgets and is pushing us into bankruptcy. The rest have a variety of hybrid systems, so yes, it is actually complicated.

There is a good reason....90% of Americans have healthcare already. And it's much better and cheaper healthcare than any government controlled and ran healthcare.

But there are taxes for it.. Worth paying, but you need to be upfront with that part too..
