We need single payer universal health care. Health care does not need to be private with a 40% overhead. Medicare is 4%. The first priority is to get the best health care to the people. Society has the right to struncture itself that way, and it is best for the people. And the idea that many people do not forego needed health care for reasons of lack of medical coverage is just ridiculous. And the idea anyone with a pre existing condition can get affordable health care is equally preposterous. Like an 80 year old women would be able to get affordable healthcare. Good lord! When someone is hurt, a decent society will be there for them.
