The VA can’t even handle veteran care properly, this is just kicking veterans while they’re down.

      Medicare is self neutering. Most decent doctors won’t take it. That’s why we need to increase the payout to be reasonable. Anyone who says the VA is bad, mostly like has never used the VA. It’s mixed. Location changes the VA considerably. I just don’t use it because I have good insurance.

      Many of my friends use it and they are happy with it.

      Where you live makes a huge difference.

      Because in order to get UHC at all you have to get rid of the obstructionists first ;D Until then, you’re not actually getting UHC

      ETA: if you’re already starting with the assumption that extreme corruption is inevitable in any and all systems regardless of attempts at mitigation then there’s no point in anything, as everything will always end in corruption and it becomes “pick your preferred flavor of hell”.
