    Some Democrats had planned to reintroduce “Medicare for America” on Tuesday — a coverage plan backed by Center for American Progress, which would preserve a role for private insurers. But that bill’s unveiling was *just* postponed. Clears the decks for “Medicare for All” today.

        I prefer a transition period at least, not a jump into universal gov't coverage.

        Idiotic move. WTF If we blow out private insurers it will be a fcking disaster. One step at a time, people. Let’s not blow this.

        What is it about single payer that these businesses don’t get? They can live off their profits and portfolios for the next 10 generations.
