I don’t appreciate the implication that Dems weren’t also working to privatize Medicaid and Medicare.
The solution is not to empower an alternative who’s backed by the same monied interests.
Democrats have always been adamantly opposed to privatizing Medicare, Social Security, etc.
Why not just look it up before declaring ‘they would never do that!’? It takes all of five seconds to confirm whether or not you’re in denial.

This is exactly how they keep getting away with it. Y’all don’t care what Dems do, so long as they do it quietly. The Biden admin was also working on a plan to privatize all of the country’s water and social security.
