maybe dems SHOULD run on fear and on talking about how 90% of the jobs in the "recovery" have been temp jobs. how about you talk about that instead of data centers or whatever that robot ossoff was going on about :thinking:

the other common proposed "fix" i've heard is a medicare public option. some variations of this proposal is to only offer it in underserved rural areas instead of generally everywhere. the proposals generally set up the public option to fail with absurd stipulations and not allow the public option to compete meaningfully with private insurers. a fair and meaningful competition between a public option and private insurers would necessarily be the end of private insurers, so it will not happen. the intent of these proposals is to move back meaningful progressive healthcare reform further while pretending to be progressive.

RT actually allows progressive guests to show up on their network unironically unlike CNN et al note that this isn't a defense of RT's news since I don't know what it is and don't watch it beyond some interviews I've seen

comedyblissoption posted:during the General Election as the Obamacare premiums were skyrocketing right before the election, the suggested proposal I heard on NPR was to increase the penalty for not having healthcare coverage The Klobuchar part could work if expanded beyond Rx pricing to the cost of care more broadly. Hard caps on pricing across the board could really cut costs. Certain doctors would probably have to work for less than $600k/yr to make this happen though, lol.

The general rule of thumb for national news networks is that they're good at covering events in foreign countries, but can never be trusted to cover their own. Yes, even the BBC.
