    How about reforming healthcare so it’s both private and reasonably priced?

      Because healthcare is not a kind of “market”, it doesn’t lend itself well to the ideals of capitalism. You aren’t going to go shopping around for hospitals while you are bleeding out in the back of an ambulance.

      The congressional budget office even agrees that Medicare for all will save the government money, because it will eliminate the bureaucracy put in place to fleece money out of patients.
