More fundamentally, if the Ds are the party of "redistribution" or "communal action," I don't understand how you say to ppl "your taxes are going to go up to help others" without a moral valence. HC, which can be an "almost everyone wins" scenario is weirdly a exception.

I don't like Bernie's M4A for a lot of reasons, but aiming to massively expand lifesaving health coverage is a good and IMO moral act.
Why do you two keep saying this stuff as if that’s what I’m arguing? I’m not arguing the pros and cons of any plan. I’m arguing against the idea you can pick a specific plan and claim that anyone against it is acting immorally. You CAN do that, but that’s moralizing

No. I’m saying that there a number of ways to get people healthcare and you don’t get to claim the moral superiority of one particulate one cause that’s the best the Dems could do Again, you can if you want, but most people are going to laugh you off
