The reason single player won't work here is the same reason healthcare reform failed a decade ago: the insurance companies will spend a shitload of money to make sure whatever we get will be absolute dogshit.

It's not that it won't work, it's that it will be strongly opposed by powerful and entrenched groups.

The liberal response is "those groups have a point, best not to try, since they fund my campaign."

The leftist response is "those groups are parasites and will be removed as part of this, gently caress their money."

Yeah but they're not going to be removed is the catch. Any promise of single payer comes with the implicit understanding that insurance companies are going to be sabotaging it, because there's nobody willing to push back.

poo poo sucks.

I apologize for asking this in multiple threads, but who are the big progressive SuperPACs? Are there any?



No because the people pumping money into SuperPACs don't want good things
