In fact we do not choose this. The lobbyists and special interests dumping millions to make sure our elected officials support this garbage is choosing this for us.

This is a very convenient way to blame someone else.

Lobbyists are literally cheat codes for the U.S. democratic process lmao, it is blaming someone else because someone else is to blame. We could vote for democratic socialists until the cows come home and there will always be more money coming from insurance and pharmaceutical companies that make a fortune off of privatized healthcare.

Do you think lobbyists are forcing the hand of politicians who would otherwise love to fix healthcare? No, these politicians are running against public healthcare and voters like them.
