Large swathes of Americans haven't been convinced they can't have these things. They've been convinced these things are inherently bad. The cost of having these things is too high.
That's the narrative you need to change. It's not whether it's possible, it's whether it's desirable.
The fact that we need to pay monthly premiums just to bring the prices of medicine down to what they should be to begin with and the price of healthcare to barely affordable is ridiculous. Insurance and big pharma work together to artificially jack up the prices to 10-100x+ what they actually cost in order to wring all the cash they can out of us. This needs to change.

Tbh, I think this misses the point.

Why aren’t we asking who can make this happen? What do we Americans need to do to make this happen?
