i think 1 reason m4a didnt catch on is that medicare is shit insurance. when a program needs 3 min infomercials on day time teevee to tell u y u need a medigap policy, that program is crap.
and after a yr of the orange menace slashing anything and everything, i’m nervous about the whole idea. always have been.

in a lot of states, medicaid is actually good insurance. have always thought the public option was the way to go, but for medicaid, not medicare. a lot of ppl love it, but i think most of those ppl have lived w NO insurance for a long stretch.
