    Fucking imbecile.

    To put it in a weird context: I am like 50 and I was so conservative as a younger man that I was nicknamed after Rush Limbaugh. OK? I was a pre-Trump right-wing asshole.

    And even I favored Medicare for All. As a conservative Republican.

    Why? Because it made the most business sense. You mean I can control my health care costs, cover everyone in the country, cut out like 2/3 of the paperwork, anyone can see any doctor, and I can let HR do something other than insurance paperwork? You couldn’t build a bigger political win-win-win-win-win.

    That’s actually the issue that drove me out of the party. Romney running against Obamacare (aka Romneycare) as if he didn’t invent the fucking plan was my last straw.

    If you’re a business conservative against Medicare for All, you need a new CPA.

      I’m glad you can see the light on this issue, I live and work in a very conservative area and anytime I try to bring the business advantage argument up with the people around me they just fall back on “commie socialism” and “death panels” and then shut down on me. At this point I’m convinced even their God king trump couldn’t convince them it’s actually the better option…not that he would but you get what I’m saying.
