- lack of universal healthcare = colossal health and economic risk - healthcare tied to employment is stupid. - inequity and inverted prioritization of gov't (under good circumstances, not even counting trump fuckery) - trump fuckery: power motivation is so strong someone can do (pick any 2 things he's done) and face no consequences or pushback - extreme outsourcing = economic and security risk. we need ability to have a critical supply chain for food, medical and other goods, with a certain percentage home grown
that's a lot of big ticket shit. if hrc woulda won (extending obama presidency) i think we could have been much closer to a public option, which could have morphed into m4a by her 2nd term). *maybe* we can get some kind of public option / m4a-ish solution as a result of this complete and total disaster. but then again, you still got states that ain't even on lockdown, and ppl protesting to kick off corona part 2.
peace & blessings,
