You never know. There can be a dynamic to events in which what seems impossible suddenly becomes possible. Then it's 'an idea whose time has come.'

But someone has to be pushing a positive program. You can't beat something with nothing--that's how the Republicans lost against Obamacare.

When enough Americans demand single we will get it. I do not see that at this point in time because Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan are in charge of Congress.

The Federal Reserve works with private banks to control our money supply and regulate our economy...perhaps the same will happen with insurance companies and Obamacare/Medicare/Medicaid.
