    Why are Democrats never as cool as Republicans say they are? Like they controlled the entire government under Obama and the best we got was making it illegal to not have health insurance.

      if you know which DNC are elected , you know some of them are actually conservative, but not R enough to be elected as a republican, they just pretend to be a dem to get elected. we dont have a significant number of AOCs, or bernies in congress, its mostly schumerites, and hakeem politically speaking. because the old guard will never agree on AOC and bernies agenda, they would rather get rich by placating GOP and thier donors.

      But that’s how single payer systems basically work. It’s illegal to not pay into the system because it’s illegal to not pay your taxes.

        Except it’s not a single payer health system is it? It’s just giving corporations even more money and therefore power.
