It’s hard to find one with what’s going on but Medicare for all makes sense before you mention the cost look how we’re spending money now. If anything it free’s up money that would otherwise be spent on healthcare. That’s it for me.

It would be universal. No matter where you are, it’s accepted.

The less government involvement in my life, the better. Once you allow them to regulate health care, you're allowing them to regulate your health. Everything that you consume. Any activity in which you participate. Gun ownership (remember, they're already pushing gun violence as a public health issue). This is a genie that we'd never get back into the bottle.

That’s a terrible idea. Why would the government give a service to people who can easily afford it and would never choose the form that the government is offering?

My choice: Reducing the size of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve because we no longer need it due to it not being strategic any more.

Let’s give them free healthcare, free tuition, free housing, free phones, free internet, free food.

Why do people need to work?

You develop a society that is unsustainable. The politicians that give this away stay rich and powerful and the middle class has to live amongst the decay that our society will become.

With a mature, thinking mind I can honestly say not a damn thing Democrat nor any leftist ideology they espouse aligns with anything I’d agree with.

I remember this was huge several years ago; now I never hear of it. I’m not worried about over crowded urgent cares because they’ll probably need to build more and expand hospitals.

Sugar/Soda taxes ala New York City. Obesity costs this country countless money through medical costs getting passed through insurance onto the consumer, to disabilities, and lost productivity. Obesity is almost always caused by poor dietary decisions. Plus, people would be more attractive too.

Decriminalization of Marijuana at the Federal level.

Where I differ, is that I believe it should be left up to the states to decide per the constitution. I do believe states should decriminalize it as well, but they should not be forced by the Fed.

I also differ from the commies, in that I don't believe it should be highly regulated and/or taxed.

They just can't get anything right other than underhanded shite like creating propaganda, election fraud, laundering taxpayer dollars into their campaigns/family, and lying. The world would be a better place without the corrupt scumbags empowered by the sleazy Democrat party.

Cutting off all welfare would be a better solution to America's problems than taxing sugar.

Euthanasia. After watching numerous elderly relatives be forced to degrade into varying degrees of vegetative states (including having enough self-awareness to ask for assistance in dying) and then wallowing there until their bodies finally shut down (which took years in a couple of cases), I would much rather there be some avenue for this (even with, or especially with, significant legal hurdles to avoid abuse).

We were able to put my dying dog down with far more grace and dignity than those relatives received. It's a fricking shame.

The upper echelons of the Medical Industrial Complex would LOVE that.

If you think healthcare costs are high now, just wait till it's free.

I thought it was expensive pre Obamacare, it's only gone up and will continue to go up. It will only go down if government involvement goes down.

Government bureaucracy is a breeding ground for corruption and ineptitude.
Government is incapable of doing anything efficiently or in a timely manner.
Even if our government services weren't administered by agencies run by inept diversity hires guided by shitty ideologies and have been captured by corporations run by leftist shitbags.. they would still be incapable of lowering costs without rationing and completely incapable of improving quality of service.

Our healthcare system is fricked up enough, please don't encourage the government to make improvements.

The only thing I can think that I agree with this Administration on is the Chips Act. I don’t know enough about it and probably a lot of pork that benefits someone but seemed like the right move.
