Bernie's medicare for all is interesting but doesn't really take over the entire industry. Medical 'devices' is one area. Obamacare tried but that was the first thing they ripped out of Obamacare. Obamacare also made a run at standardizing software, building a database of procedures and results (also gone), etc. For single payer to work (this is exactly what this is) its necessary to regulate the entire industry, lock stock and barrel. Its inferenced but never really covered.

I am not against single payer but it requires a LOT more work than so far suggested. Given that, and the simple fact that the american voting public is not exactly able to even vote in their own best interest, somebody is going to have to come up with a much better plan than simply listing services - that's the easy part! One of the problems, I think, is that the entire industry is rife with folks with their hands on the teats of health and they are not going to let go without a really big fight. When you add in the national debt, now bigger than our GDP, there are a LOT of problems.

When you add in that Bernie has been able to produce, in 20 years, virtually no legislation, due to his ability to never give an inch, I really can't see him actually doing anything if he gets to be president. Hopefully, at the very least he will actually pass legislation that the democratic congress feeds to him.

This means that we not only have to get the presidency but the congress (both houses). We will know by the end of the year and THEN we will see!
