IMO, America's healthcare system is simply on an unsustainable path, and is likely going to implode at some point as soaring premium costs and declining insurance coverage, combined with the GOP's gutting of Medicaid and other government healthcare assistance, will simply leave a majority of the population with no healthcare whatsoever, which will cause a national health/medical crisis of unprecedented proportions. Eventually even Republicans are going to be forced, kicking and screaming, to come up with something workable or face a blowback at the polls from the 65% of the population that aren't in the cult, and maybe even a few that are in it. In a sane world we would just adopt a system similar to what the rest of the world uses - say, like Australia's Medicare, which is similar to ours but covers everyone and not just people 65 and over - but given the likely resistance from health insurance companies and the GOP who knows what we'll get. But I do think the system as we've known it simply isn't going to last much longer, as the rising prices are making it increasingly unaffordable for more and more people, including most middle-class people.
There are, in my opinion, several things in our society that need a major overhaul.

That is why I'm waiting for a comprehensive plan from the Dems. They seem to have learned a lesson, they need to prove it in the next two elections.

I believe it was pod save America last week where they interviewed several current elected Dems. I really agreed with the one guy (can't recall his name), but he said they need laws already drafted and ready to go after the elections, which i agree. Next they need some quick big hitters to help the people, then they can settle into more systemic and architectural changes, like fixing the SCOTUS, and making the guard rails enforceable. And we are gong to need to address the deficit and debt. As well as a universal basic income and AI regulation.

This is what I want to see. Real policy, real action.

Start building that momentum and then go after Healthcare. The money that is currently being spent it should be easy to show how money can be saved while increasing coverage.

I completely believe in equal rights and the rights of LBGTQ people, but we have to win to take action. The talking points have to be focused and the Dems have to maintain control, they can't get dragged into the marsh where the maga cult lives again or were all fucked.

I'm beyond ready to retire.
