Unfortunately, Randall, the Boards usually have a sweetheart deal with your CEO and usually protect them, because they are themselves CEOs and they have your CEO on their board voting on their pay package. That's what campaign contributions do for them. Their favorite politicians keep hands off of regulations.

That is, unfortunately, very true. We must overcome the political money from the insurance industry, as they’ll fight this tooth and nail. A testament as to why we need to eliminate the corruption from the political system.

And while the auto industry bailouts may happen sooner than an HR676 fix can be implemented, there are thousands of other industries that would benefit from a Medicare-for-all system. This one fix is easier than thousands of fixes, and would avoid the misuse of funds that we’ve seen with the banking industry.

Yeah, Medicare-for-all makes too much sense, economically, and things that make sense don’t stand a chance of passing.
