    The US already overall spends more than enough on healthcare, to fund universal care for everyone. But that fat inflated money pool, needs to pay for a ton of wasteful expenses that have nothing to do with healthcare (billing, insurance sales, people who bounce documents and phone calls back & forth to the insurance companies; and of course profit extraction).

    Tax the rich to pay for infrastructure, green energy projects, UBI or other help to the poorest & working poor …heck even throwing billions at fusion energy research, will create a lot more economic activity and be money better spent; than letting the psychopathic wealth hording dragons keep their missions of gold.
