    As long as people admit that the good isn’t perfect and that they’re gonna work to make it more perfect I don’t mind.

    But Democrats passed the ACA and then decided that’s the best we could possibly do, and that anyone who wants more is somehow being more unreasonable than our current health care system.

      Realistically, single payer isn’t going to pass without Democrats holding the house, senate, and presidency at levels that bypass filibusters. And then the Republicans will drag their feet as much as possible to do everything they can to delay progress.

        What makes you think they would pass single payer even with all of that control?

        Theres a reason the democrats just said “oh well, better luck next time” when they lost to trump this election.
