Let’s assume we want all people to have health care. What are the steps / methods most likely to get us there?

In the U.S. seems like we’re a long way from that goal. I’m curious about chunking down the big goal into smaller steps. Interested to hear perspectives from other countries too.

    People need to vote.

    If all the eligible people voted in the US, we could have universal healthcare in a year. Biden needs a super majority in both Houses.

      That’s not how our democracy works unfortunately. We are a representative democracy, and regardless of the way the majority vote, our representatives can and do act against the general populace on a consistent basis.

      What are the odds people actually vote for it though? I’m of the impression that most Americans would rather to pay for healthcare than have it taken out of their taxes.
