Reply #9: Holy crap. The existence of Medicare in its current form couldn't disprove your thesis more

The public option wont grow and expand and become single-payer no matter how much magic, elves, and fairies you throw at it. This is all fantasy gibberish. Just like Medicare, it will remain dedicated to serving a small percentage of the market it is meant to service, as to not interfere with the operations of private industry.

Yes, Medicare works. Its still around. But it certainly hasn't become Medicare for all over decades. Don't be a fool and believe the firewalled "public option" will miraculously become the "Public Option for All" in any reasonable amount of time.

If you want single-payer, you oughta be fighting for expanding Medicare, not for fantasies based on some wild eyed interpretation of the purpose of the "public option"
