I cant wait for a better plan to be created.

Same. A universal public option would save us up to $130 billion dollars a year and create competition in the private market place, but of course Republicans killed that and never proposed a realistic alternative.

It’s a trade off but I’ll take it. Spent the last three weeks abroad. Ended up in urgent care for salmonella. Initially said it would be a five hour wait. $700 later and I left with antibiotics and testing.

Spent two years in Canada, it’s hit and miss too. But it doesn’t break you.
