the exact very nuanced position he took. Remember even Trump tried to imply in 2016 that his goal was cheaper, better insurance for all -- and single payer is a way to get there. I do not think their are big insurance companies in WV.

Here, he is simply open to looking at alternatives and calling for a real look at the other countries. Remember in RW media, everyone in Canada and the UK HATE the system. Now, I have friends in both places, not one would trade for our mess of a system - not pre ACA, not ACA before Republican sabatoge, not ACA now.
