Asheville Progressive Posted on November 3, 2015 by adminNovember 8, 2015

Federal Subsidies for Derivatives Trades ?!!! “Democrats must stand strong and fight back Republican efforts to weaken oversight,” Warren wrote. “Rolling back the rules on our largest and riskiest institutions is a terrible idea for just about everyone except a handful of well-connected financial firms – and we weren’t sent here to work for them.” Warren’s post is an effort to persuade Wall Street-friendly Democrats, who have defected from the … Continue reading →

More importantly, it has succeeded in providing near-universal coverage to Americans over age 65 in a very cost-effective manner. If we are serious about providing high-quality, affordable care as a right for all Americans, the only solution to this crisis is a Medicare-for-all single-payer system.
