You may want to consider starting your own thread about insurance supporting the policies of the candidate you are endorsing as your own perfect OP
in a different place. Instead of hijacking a post that is not even about the topic you appear to be determined to comment on. It's called topic comment behavior and it's a sign of being able to stay focused on a particular subject, as opposed to off topic behavior which is the symptom of a limited attention span.

of all Americans, and especially Democrats (people want a CHOICE between a national public healthcare plan and the option to keep their own insurance), as 'shilling'.

Do you have any idea of hard it is going to be to even get the public option passed?

Poor, bad faith attack.

understand how Medicare works. My husband qualifies under A and B, but he pays extra to get private insurance so we understand the pricing.

Wait till they get offered Medicare, then try to figure out costs if you need a medical procedure. Pete just wants private insurance, if they can to compete with public insurance too. I’m open to everything because Medicare only, is a bit scary. Unless you qualify for Medicaid too.

Too few people younger than Medicare age seem to understand that Medicare doesn't cover everything.

People need to believe that we can come together after this nightmare. Because all the things Dems and citizens of conscience want to get done will require a shoulder-to-shoulder approach. That goes for the repair, restoration and moving forward.

How anyone can see this message as a negative is inexplicable.

Good one on Pete!
