So this is the Democrats
So this is the Democrats answer to the Republicans many many "repeal Obamacare" bills sent up during Obama's tenure? *Yawn* And I bet if/when the Dem's get the presidency & majority in both houses again, they'll be as unable to pass single payer as the Repug's were unable to repeal Obamacare a few months ago. Too many vested corporate interests.
Oh and let's not forget who tried to enact single payer in 1992 - HILLARY !?!?!?!?!?!

GOOD! keep it in the press.
GOOD! keep it in the press. This nation needs to take care of its citizens' health. Other countries are able to do so, why not us? The 1% will still be able to pay for the best healthcare they can get. If companies don't have to pay healthcare, they would save money and small business could flourish.The article says 2.3% tax increase. I don't mind paying this. Not much all things considered. I benefit by being able to live here. Its a good place.
I think all we need to do is deny medical coverage to Insurance company executives and lobbyists. They would come around.
What do you know, 2 female democrats leading the charge with burnzy! Go Senators. represent.

Your employer pays for your
Your employer pays for your health insurance at great expense. You don't get paid as much do to that great expense. That's a healthcare tax your paying already. Decreased wages is a tax.
Germany, Japan, France, Spain, Canada & England have no problem with socialized healthcare.

Um, please let's stick to calling it "Single Payer"
If it's 1 thing the Repug's clearly out-rank the Dem's on is Messaging, Spin, appropriate use of Language. Remember, Joe Lunchpail (my Dad) responds to these type of things, not actual facts.

I wave my employers
I wave my employers healthcare for a better plan under my wife's employment. Do I see any more wages for saving my employer a small fortune every year? Hell no!
I am signing up next month with my employer though next month to use as a bargaining chip for an offer on my part for professional services next year for the money instead of benefits.

If the company didn't have to pay for healthcare for everybody then you would probably see a raise if the CEO piece of shit doesn't steal it. Ownership society work to make others rich. Profit sharing the company does well and the employees do well. Remember that?
You like it when the small business switches insurance carriers every fucking year in search of a cheaper rate. Or they got canceled because a employees wife had expensive cancer and it cost the carrier profits.
