Hey, Americans, nothing stops your Democrat-run blue states from improving your healthcare.

nothing stops your Democrat-run blue states from improving your healthcare.

Given the two party system, and the fact that republicans arent in power in these states, that only leaves the Democrats themselves.

End First Past The Post voting. Introduce competition into the electoral process. FREE voters ability to choose.

But I guess that isn't profitable enough for some.

Nothing lasts forever....

Why? UHC is cheaper than the current system. You wouldn't need any extra taxes.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 months ago

Really shows me how traumatized I am by United Health Care when I see UHC and it immediately brings them to mind and not Universal. I had to put in some work to understand that Acronym

[–] [email protected] -4 points 4 months ago (25 children)

It's only cheaper if you consider current healthcare costs. It would require tax increases, and under current progressive tax models, those would be disproportionately high for the upper class, for whom the increase would not offset the elimination of their healthcare premium.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Yeah we need to deflate the disproportionately high pricing of the health care caused by insurance as well, if we could get it at the national level we could eliminate a lot of the back office overhead, and then maybe negotiate a revisit of the master charge list so that Tylenol in hospital isn't something crazy like $250 dollars a dose. State by state this would probably be much more difficult.
