Perhaps it can scale depending on size of the company, number of employees, income? Seems Warren's overarching plan is to effectively tax the poo poo out of the rich to pay for this, so I don't see why any tax can't be scaled down for smaller businesses.

well, no they're going to rightly point out that it is still a tax on the "middle class" because of course its going to be. she should do like bernie and reframe the question about what we justify paying for already

I genuinely think an argument could be made for both but so much depends on what happens to the GOP if Trump loses.

It's unnecessarily complicated and as a result, is vulnerable. People aren't as stupid as gently caress as Jake tapper, you don't need to pander to them like this and as a result create a structure that is going to be coopted sooner than later

My other main suspicion is that we don't need to do anything but spend less than we are already spending on private subsidies. Any plan for additional funding is deeply suspicious as a result, is the goal to maintain the current private insurance system and leave them their power to destroy all good and living things? Will that mean they are permitted to duplicate coverage? Those are both dealbreakers

Somebody here introduced me to timeghost history and in their series about WWI they document the Armenian genocide pretty well, as a part of Turkey's role in the war. All their series are pretty great stuff.

she's done that already though I think? pundits whine after every time she is asked the question and she responds Bernie-like along the lines of "it's going to be cheaper overall" rather than falling into the idiot trap of only caring about the [taxes] line in your paycheck and not the [health insurance premiums]

At least on the face of it this seems like a good political move by Warren because her team managed to thread the needle of getting a M4A plan that doesn't raise "middle class" taxes so maybe pundits/moderators can finally shut the gently caress up with their idiot right wing talking point questions in every debate or interview

If these plans don't have an end goal of abolishing private insurance companies then what's even the point
