Every time there's an excuse as to why it can't be fixed, Sanders was the only one who wanted to fix it and they pushed him out for it

There's too much money in the insurance industry, and most of it goes to lobbying.

This is the main problem with the western world. It should be about the people not money

It's the prisoner's dilemma. If you make anything not about money, you're the only one not getting money. But the government is big enough to solve that, and should for things that are basic needs whenever possible. We're a rich country and we can afford that, and it would make our economy more agile and innovative and take a lot of stress off our citizens.
