Oh another Q I had was the student debt relief.
Isn't student debt relief just a short term fix? Yes debt relief is something I would vote for, but Like that money has to go somewhere right? Wouldn't it be better to lower the cost of the out of control education or health care first to make it easier to provide more affordable universal care in the future?
Unless other country with universal care charge $20 for a cough drop at the distributor level for hospitals, then disregard my statement 😄
Why not give people student debt relief and make college free and have universal healthcare? It's not like you have to pick one.
How much are you willing to give up of your own pay cheque to fund that?
I'm more than willing to pay more in taxes as it will be offset by not paying my expensive monthly health insurance premium. Even bureaucrats would be better than insurance "for profit" flunkies in deciding what health decisions I'm allowed to make.
