    I’ve given up hope of any meaningful reform on meaningful issues, so this article isn’t that disheartening. However, I hate it when Democrats use phrases like this:

    Americans would have access to affordable health coverage

    I don’t want affordable coverage. I want affordable care. The concept of health insurance as a thing I need to buy should not exist.

      For me, for-profit medical care ranks up there with cock/dog fighting and taking young minors as sex slaves as the most inhumane things possible. It is profiting off the suffering of human beings. Even if it was slightly more egalitarian and was profiting off the healing of human beings, it would only be marginally better.
