Go Warren!

[candrew]

the term single payer isn’t there. You realize that, yeah? If you’re missing out on the nuance, public option means everyone gets covered (technically); but the bureaucracy of administering multiple health care insurances is kept, meaning health care costs to the country continue to balloon. It’s a bad idea.

my final post on this topic for now— heres Krystal Ball with some great Warren analysis recently:

This is exactly what I said 2 pages ago. Politicians like Warren tell you how you should think while politicians like Obama and Bill Clinton (and Trump) tell you how you should feel. The former type never gets enough of the left leaning electorate into the voting booths.

This will be 2004 all over again. The left thought they could win on Bush/Cheney hate alone. So they went safe and trotted out John Kerry, an experienced, capable, blow-dried politician with zero relatable qualities.

It sucks and it's wrong and it shouldn't be this way - but the fact is we're in a Reality TV world - that's why we have a Reality TV personality as President - Warren doesn't make the cut.

The polls have proven you incredibly wrong.

Some pollsters have her behind Biden 15-20%

I’m not in her camp, but I think you’re numb to the recent tides.

I haven't paid much attention to Tulsi. What ideas is she putting out there that interest folks?

Tulsi is the anti-military industrial complex candidate by nature, and supports medicare for all, hence the most attractive candidate in my eyes. That can be taken in different ways.

Elegant, presidential, cuts through like a knife. She could take Trump for a ride if given the chance.

I'm not numb to them, l just don't lend much credence to them this early in the game.

There’s some pretty dependable evidence that she’s already surging; and that she’s the one who will benefit most from a thinning field.

Tulsi, Yang or Sanders for in my view, a much needed stir up. In that order.

That depends upon the implementation. LogGrad98 can tell you more about it than I (based on personal experience), but my understanding is that Germany (for example) relies on private (non-profit) administrators for its public healthcare.

you can only opt in on private insurance if you’re making above 60some thousand euros a year; 77% of their health care expenditure is delivered by the public sector, a figure higher than UKs or Canada’s last I checked. Additionally, these sickness funds are all not for profit, which is different from what Buttigieg and Warren are offering.

Here's what Chomsky says about Bernie's healthcare program and how taxes will apply to it:

She opposes military expansion, perhaps as much as any candidate since Ron Paul. She isn't an establishment candidate at all. She also looks a bit like Wonder Woman.

Exactly.

It's funny. Though there is some daylight between Sanders and Warren, there isn't a ton. But the way some Bernie fans talk about her you'd think she was the female version of Joe Manchin.

You know Elizabeth Warren made a "spirited defense" of Joe Manchin, right?
