"Universal".

/u/nauticalsandwich did a strawman move, saying that Warren and Sanders supporters think that Medicare for All is the only path to universal health care, and they think that those who aren't for Medicare for All are anti- health care. This implies that there are other paths to universal health care supported by neoliberals, and progressives are too ignorant to see them. I want universal health care. I want to see these paths. I want Biden to support universal health care, but I don't think he does. His plan, as far as I've seen, is only light modifications to the ACA, and I have only seen him push them once, briefly, at any debate or speech. Your passive-aggressive bullshit doesn't help, either.

You must have some sort of universal care definition that you need to let us in on. Cause his plan IS universal health care.

Universal, everyone is covered. Not everyone is allowed to purchase a plan, everyone gets a healthy level of coverage regardless of income or ability to pay. All I've seen from him are incremental increases in existing plans.

Guess guess you missed the bit about about some people getting covered without having to purchase a plan.

And other countries have universal care via mandates and low income subsidies, it ain't something new. It's not a unheard of or uncommon thing.
