You were ignored because the idea was too sensible, an administration nightmare (they’re paid to deal with shit like that though). There’s so much evidence that the system is failing everyone, politicians are dragging their feet with a long-term solution (due to health insurance lobbying). We’ve just got to keep fighting against the bullshit and make healthcare a better situation for all Americans. Small victories until a bigger win happens, even if it’s not in our lifetime; setting the foundation for a total victory is better than doing nothing.
