Reply #30: Alright what are we arguing here [View All]

My positions:

Mandate- No


Public option - yes


Universal healthcare/single payer-- yes


That about sums it up. I do not want a mandate. If you have a proper public option you do not need a mandate. I have great insurance, I am more than willing to pay additional taxes for other people to have insurance too. I am on the upper end of the lower income bracket. I think people that occupy rungs of the economy above me SHOULD be willing to pay more in taxes. I think they wouldn't have to if we had a strong public option or universal single payer as they would be far cheaper.
