(39,909 posts)The ACA postponed REAL Health Care Reform for another generation.
A National, Publicly Owned, government Administered health Insurance Program (like Medicare for ALL) will be impossible now.
We will be stuck with the MANDATE to BUY Health Insurance from For Profit Corporations for a LONG time.
Now, whenever anyone suggests we try A National, Publicly Owned, government Administered health Insurance Program ,
they will be met with Screaming Choruses claiming that "We already tried that, and it doesn't work in America".
Even though it is not true, that IS what will be used to destroy ANY movement toward a national program, and it will succeed.
There will be NO Fixing it Later.
An opportunity like we had in 2009 comes only once in a generation.
