The horrific shooting of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson contains a sobering lesson. Americans have had it with the injustice and cruelty of our current healthcare system. Their rage has hit a boiling point. I abhor violence; it is never, ever justified. But it is clear that something has to change. Millions of U.S. citizens are being saddled with staggering amounts of debt, going bankrupt, or even dying because of our utterly broken healthcare system. The solution is some form of single-payer healthcare. There is no other way. We cannot afford to keep going down the deadly road of healthcare-for-profit. Please co-sponsor and support S. 1655 / H.R. 3421 The Medicare For All Act. The time for change has come. We can do this if Congress has the will. It must. Because we, the people, surely do. Thank you.
