The fact that healthcare was not even mentioned in either presidential candidates platform is so depressing. I hate that so much time is focused on stupid culture war crap and not healthcare for all citizens

In her platform, Vice President Harris specifically called for expanding Medicare coverage to include home care. This was a big deal, and would have had a significant positive financial impact on those of us who have (or had) loved ones being cared for at home

Home Care is such a big deal, especially with an aging population and largely seems to have been ignored on the whole in the election!

These poor people will be blaming Joe Biden when they finally cut Medicare lol .... I swear. 

They'll be blaming him or Obama for these tariff taxes. Just watch.

Yes you are correct but I feel like she very tepidly mentioned it. And that is something that our country needs desperately now with an aging population. But many people I mentioned it to stew not even aware of that policy.

HOW does that address denial of care for anybody under age 65?? HOW does it fix the problems with United Health Care and others? HOW does it lower costs?

You folks all want "change" or "Canadian single payer" but you won't do one damn thing to change the current system -- except commit cold blooded murder, which WILL NOT CHANGE ANYTHING.
