We need to go further than Obamacare takes it. We need a single payer plan. It is good enough for our seniors. (try taking away medicare from them) I am a Veteran it is good enough for me at the VA. Yes there are horror stories of wait times, but when something is urgent medically shit happens FAST. I can personally attest to that. The routine stuff is what gets reported.
Can it all be fixed, sure. Can Obamacare be fixed, sure.
WTF is the republicans alternative though...going back to the same way it was before?
Oh, you're totally right. The ACA is merely the enactment of what was possible not what was desirable. I'm so sick of this horseshit that "'Murrica can't do x" even though the rest of the world manages to do it quite nicely.
What we need is Medicare for all. Fuck the insurance companies.
