CORRECT! If you REALLY want to see unemployment drop to historic lows that would never be challenged, remove the need to work full time to be able to get affordable healthcare.
Or, receive a living wage from the government.

If this is the case then Dems are idiots. Why would they want to be in a position to get overruled in the Senate and have to go on defense, when they could have continued to make a super strong case for having to go through lengthy court process because trump wouldn't let these people testify? I was under the impression they were going to look to the chief justice to force a fairer process. This is the only impeachment which the POTUS has not cooperated AT ALL.
it will just take too long, that's all. Dems want to roll now. An impeachment trial a month before the election would be just a bit hairy.
But even after the trial, dems will continue to investigate. There will be trump investigations for years and years and years.
And there will be plenty of damaging testimony at the trial, for pete's sake.
Including one of Joe Biden. If he is elected, guaranteed, as Flagpole would say.

It’s obvious pubs are bluffing in this, but I would not want Biden to testify. No telling what he would say.

An obvious salutation to Trump.
Fat Boy is trump, unless Barr & Pompeo are there, too.
In which case I’d call the AG Fat Crime; pompous would then be Fat State.

If we eliminate private insurance we save tons of money in administrative costs (it is far far easier to have one code and one price for every procedures rather than different codes for every different insurer) and tons of money that currently goes to health insurance corporate profits. We can save money and cover everybody at the same time.
This may be true. However what is the process to getting to this point? We can't flip a switch and just make it happen. The problem for those proposing MFA is they can't put together a coherent method of getting from point A, where we are now, to point T which is where we need to go.
This doesn't take into account other issues with government controlled payment for medical services.
At the very least, this is likely a generation and possibly a multi-generation change if it were ever to come to pass.
You could just study the hundred other countries who’ve already “flipped the switch;” an appropriate metaphor, since we flipped a switch & went with electric lighting quickly, despite much greater obstacles & zero precedent.
Honest conservative.

I have a very hard time believing that you are a college graduate. You appear to have no critical thinking skills whatsoever.

whoah! A policy debate? That's way too advanced for LRC.
I happen to absolutely loathe healthcare policy. I just don't care very much and have no strong opinion other than we need a stronger hand from the government to control prices.
Will try to read tho.
Cool beans. Policy.

Agreed, and for the same reason.
