To be clear, the public option is an alternative to for-profit healthcare Insurance, not on the performance and delivery side.WestlinnDuck said:
Great 5 minute video by Sharyl Atkinson's Full Measure about an Oklahoma doctor treating his patients for one low fee for basic services like joint replacements. Just like lasik surgery, breast implants or lipo suction which are very competitive. You see more ads for lipo suction than joint replacements for some reason. Get some competition and you get better procedures and lower costs. Note that Trump wanted to make hospital pricing more competitive and the industry hated him for it.TurdBomber said:
A conservative position IS, however, a Public Option. Conservatives believe in market competition and forces, which include the widest variety of options, including the bargain basement public option plan.WestlinnDuck said:
So, what are his conservative positions? Honest question A conservative position on public education would be to ban teacher unions and tuition vouchers. A conservative position isn't government health care.GrundleStiltzkin said:

One thing that bugs the sh*t out of me is why someone like Yang can't explain to me why he isn't a conservative.GrundleStiltzkin said:
Guess I read Yang wrong, I thought he was pretty thirsty to get to the Big Kids table. Good on him.
Too Bad Obama and Biden don't believe in a public option, either. It could bring prices down for everyone.

And every market needs a floor. We once had Pintos, Gremlins, Vegas and Colts. We basically have that on the delivery side in doc-in-a-box urgent care centers, so we might as well have blue light specials, coupons and discounts, too.WestlinnDuck said:
When health insurance is advertised like car insurance, you will know we have a competitive market. Medicare Part B has almost completely been turned over to the health insurance companies. New enrollment for 2022 starts on October 15 and you already see a lot of adds for Medicare Advantage programs. Car repair is very competitive and lower costs mean lower insurance premiums. No one chooses bad service in a competitive environment. Getting competition into the US health care system is the key to getting cheaper and better health care.TurdBomber said:

As you know about insurance, the real demons are the bean-counters who whittle away services to reap large profits for their companies, one fucked-over subscriber at a time. -

I'm pretty certain Merrick cries when he has an orgasm.Bob_C said:
I'm also pretty certain its in the corner of the room while his wife has lesbian sex on the bed with someone from her book club.
The amount of beards in DC is probably more than anyone realizes.

Good on him.Also, on a personal level, I’ll admit there has always been something of an odd fit between me and the Democratic Party. I’m not very ideological. I’m practical. Making partisan arguments – particularly expressing what I often see as performative sentiment – is sometimes uncomfortable for me. I often think, “Okay, what can we actually do to solve the problem?” I’m pretty sure there are others who feel the same way I do.
I laughed. -
What? Is Yang like 10 years old and has just figured out that the dem policies are all based on emotion and fear as performance art and actually don't solve any problems but make them worse. Like solving homelessness or solving public education.huskyhooligan said:GrundleStiltzkin said:
