What is the most promising pathway to reach universal healthcare?

LesserAbe@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 84 points –

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.

Honestly? The abolition of democracy/representative government.

Why is that? How everybody else made to the point of having universal health care while still under a democracy or representative government?

I don't know if you're being serious or not but modern socialism pretty much began with the Nazis.

What are you talking about? All the first world countries have public health care and it works better than private health care.

Even in the states, public health care would be far cheaper than private healthcare. Anybody who wants private healthcare instead of public health care is brainwashed.

Yeah, I was gonna say "guillotines" but basically the same idea. At the very least, we'd have to make bribery illegal, but that's not going to happen while bribery is legal.
