According to who? The businesses that have to pay it?

And that is not the real problem with healthcare...the real problem is that healthcare in america is about making money and turning profits first...and if some people get helped that is okay to...and if they don't get help that is okay to...

People focus so much on healthcare and not the fact that companies put so much sugar in fruit drinks that by the time somebody is 16 they might be a diabetic...

According to people with businesses esp small ones.

Yang was a CEO of his own non profit. His book talks about the burden that paying premiums is on the business.

My barber here in MD with a functioning ACA exchange can’t give healthcare to his employees any longer cause the premiums are so high. He said he’d rather pay a Tax and have universal healthcare. But premiums are a private tax on top of the public taxes we all pay.

If you had just a flat employer tax for a Medicare for all system, businesses would save money.

There are markets where insurers are a monopoly and jacking up premiums. It’s not sustainable.

Yep I've made this same point before. If Kamala and Booker had black spouses and children, black voters would fukk with them more. Obama would not have been president if he married a white woman, there was something about seeing a black politician with a beautiful black woman and kids that made black America fall in love with him and come out to support him.
Easily the moment black folk saw BO, Michelle, both daughter and mom in law.. that shyt put him over the top.. so much so that Bill Clinton felt a way about it and said some slick shyt.. Black folk was like word? Watch this... 98% of the black vote off the rip went to BO

Yeah, why is she doing that? Any insight?

Cozied up to bernie in 2016

Going easy on biden now

Seems like a cabinet play although her rationale for letting biden slide as opposed to harris with the timeliness of her record as ag does make some sense i suppose
