Republicans like Lindsay Graham frame the Obamacare debates as being Federalism versus Socialism. That is a distraction.
The purpose of government is to address citizens’ shared needs that emanate from necessities. One is affordable healthcare. No Americans should be without an acceptable level of quality healthcare.
No Americans should live in poverty. All Americans deserve a good life.
I explain these things in my new book, Regenerating America with Sustainable Economics © Archway Publishing. Please read it and then share your opinion.
Scaring people by using the word “socialism” doesn’t cut it. That is not thinking.
We are not debating general styles of government, we are arguing social responsibility, environmental responsibility, and economic responsibility, in balance.
Will Republicans turn Monday into a debate on single-payer?
If ObamaCare is not repealed, Graham says the U.S. will head toward a single-payer system.
“It’s coming down to a choice between Federalism vs. Socialism,” Graham tweeted Monday morning. “I chose federalism.”
Graham will likely put a big focus on Sanders’s “Medicare for all" bill, which he recently introduced with the support of 16 of his Democratic colleagues — though not Klobuchar.
Sanders is more likely to defend the Affordable Care Act than seeking to tout his bill.
“The focus is going to be on exposing Graham-Cassidy as the most destructive piece of legislation in the modern history of our country,” a Sanders aide told The Hill.
He will be “defending the ACA, as he has for the last nine months.”
