It's already happened.

Yeah, and also, I mean, to be fair, I've read Bernie's full bill, and it's essentially universal healthcare with the name Medicare for All, right?

As you really kind of get through, I mean, it covers dental, it covers vision.

Medicare doesn't cover those things.

It's an expanded program that really is just a single-payer universal healthcare system that is based around basic things.

You can still get insurance,

For higher level procedures that it doesn't cover.

But it does cover all the stuff like if you get sick or if you get injured and you just don't have to think about it.

And I got to say...

Having traveled a lot and been to a lot of other countries, I just have this element of me where I'm like, dude, everybody else does it differently.

They all figured it out.

And yeah, of course it's never perfect.

These systems will always have – I mean we're talking about large bureaucratic systems.

They're going to have some problems.

They have a lot more problems when you get neoliberal policies in place that start taking money away from them.

But –

Everybody else has a better version of this and it's cheaper.

And the care in many ways is better for most people.

You know, a lot of folks are always, well, in America, you know, like the rich come here to get great procedures.

I'm like, that does no good for somebody with no money.
