Perhaps the people in other cities facing the same thing will also come around to appreciating the rewards of a national health care system.
Having said all of that....I do feel for those who will suffer due to lack of health care in this situation.

I have also heard people here talk about Medicare for all now. Ones that support the Tea Party and I suspect only dislike ACA because Obama and the Left were behind it.
When is the country gonna wake up and realize that the current system of revenue is not working. Nothing is trickling down, just going to the top and then into an overseas account. When the insanely rich paid a much higher tax burden our society as a whole seem to work better.
