Her campaign website is still up let's go read it right now: LINK
Oh look at that, cancelling medical debts and making healthcare a right, not a privilege. All of her plans listed are things she could have actually done as president and things she actually did do as a senator, so it explicitly excludes healthcare for all because: once again, this wacky tangent you've thrown us on means fuck all because you need a Senate Majority to end privatized healthcare and health insurance.
So elect a Dem supermajority and we will have single payer.
So clearly you did look it up. Go ahead and point to where, specifically, it discusses single payer. Calling it a "right, not a privilege" is rhetoric. The actual plans mentioned do not discuss single payer. You see this, right? That these aren't the same things?
I specifically already mentioned that in my comment, where I specifically explained to you that PRESIDENTS DONT DECIDE THIS. SENATE DOES.
Yeah and I'm saying that a Dem supermajority will not magically do something that Democrats have made clear that they are not interested in doing.
Kamala's plans are not destructive, but they would treat a symptom and not the actual disease. That's not nothing, that's why I voted for her, but it's not sufficient either.
Presidents don't decide this unilaterally, but that doesn't stop them from supporting it. Kamala doesn't. Dems don't.
