They charge a subscription fee for mental health?
$25 copay per month for a 5 minute visit so I can get a refill on my $10 prescription. Without insurance the visit is around $200. I've considered trying to get prescriptions through one of those online pharmacies to avoid having to go to the doctor every month.

The ACA is what Canada did before transitioning to single payer. That had anyways been the goal of the ACA.

Which is why the ACA had always been the first step. Obama had said as much, publicly.
