    Just this week she suggested expanding Medicare for in-home care

    Which is like the most widely abused part of Medicare…

    Not by people, by predatory providers who max out benefits while going months without even calling their “patients”.

    Jon Oliver just did an episode on it this season even, was just like a month ago I think.

    As long as someone makes a profit on healthcare, it’s going to be absurd by overcharging and undeserving.

    We need a nationalized system lol kentge VA where there’s no insurance middleman, Medicare gives us one middle man which just doesn’t solve the root problem.

    It’s been 112 years since universal healthcare was part of a presidential platform, that being “too extreme” for today’s candidat is making my point, not disputing it.

    You need to look at the longer timeframe.
