Serious question, tho.

Assuming by some miracle that a nationwide single-payer system gets passed sometime soon (and I 100% agree that this is the goal). How does it avoid being sabotaged by the people (in both parties) who want to see it fail so that they can campaign on its failure?

Healthcare will be free under Zuck because your data(genome) is valuable

the anime Kado is about an extradimensional being that comes to earth and gives us unlimited energy, the ability to forego sleep, and telekinesis. All so he can enslave us for the incredible amount of data that our lives produce when lived.

what im basically saying is zuck is an anime.

families can't balance their budgets anymore thats why we need states to go into deficit spending to provide social services gd it

I only learned this recently but apparently "economy" originally referred to balancing a family budget, and we used the term "political economy" to refer to national/international stuff. :eng101:

I hope all those leftists running in the same primary can do an unofficial runoff before the actual primary starts or something. It would be the worst if they split the vote and the centrist won.

someone do one of those lovely microsoft sam over-dubs of the one scene from office space.

So what you do is you take the POLICY from the POOR PEOPLE and
you bring them down to the GOVERNMENT?

That, that's right.

Well, then I gotta ask, then why can't the POOR PEOPLE just take the
specifications directly to the GOVERNMENT, huh?

Well, uh, uh, uh, because, uh, THE GOVERNMENT are not good at dealing with
POOR PEOPLE.

You physically take the POLICY from the POOR PEOPLE?

Well, no, my, my FOCUS GROUP does that, or, or the PRIMARY OPPONENT.

Ah.

Then you must physically bring them to the GOVERNMENT.

Well...no. Yeah, I mean, sometimes.

Well, what would you say… you do here?

Well, look, I already told you. I deal with the goddamn POOR PEOPLE so
the GOVERNMENT don't have to!! I have POOR PEOPLE skills!! I am good at
dealing with POOR PEOPLE!!! Can't you understand that?!? WHAT THE HELL IS
