It's only been a question of how.

This is what Bernie Sanders proposes on how to start. Drop enrollment age by 10 years every year to gradually get the system acclimated to the influx of more patients.

And instead of paying a health care premium to an insurance company, I’m sure most people and employers wouldn’t mind paying a fraction of that cost in the form of a slightly higher progressive Medicare tax. Which should be no where near as expensive as private market.

No co pays. No deductible no prior authorizations and no denial of service
