Obamacare premiums set to rise about 13 percent in 2027
This is why you don’t accept crumbs. When you don’t demand single payer, you get stuck with a ridiculously expensive handout to the health insurance industry that keeps the existing system in place and eventually makes everything worse.
Exactly right. Democrats cannot delude themselves into thinking restoring pre-Trump ACA subsidies and Medicaid as it was before will suffice. All that will do is recreate the conditions that gave us today's mess. Single Payer would fundamentally alter the system, which is essential.
Obamacare was set up to be easy for the Right to attack; and easy for the Right to cut. And the motherfucking liberals didn't have defending the people as a priority. They had defending Obamacare as the priority w/the built in message "this is the best you're going to get."
