III-A. Kvelertak: Bernie's "Medicare for All" Bill and the Optimism of Single-Payer

HEAVYxMEDICAL

Two-parter this week.

In III-A, this one, we discuss Bernie Sanders's "Medicare for All" bill—what it contains, what it means, our hopes for what's within it, and our concerns about what's still inadequate. It's good!

We also listen to Kvelertak's "Nattesferd," from which we got our theme music.

In III-B, coming later this weekend, we discuss fetal protection laws. This is extremely heinous—pregnant women denied abortions imprisoned for attempted feticide, then shackled while giving birth—and we wanted to give it the space it deserves and take time to edit it thoroughly. It contains within it all the dangers of a perverse nation regulating healthcare—structural racism, sexism, and the carceral state.These are the forces that must be defeated to realize health justice.

Enjoy! Please consider rating or reviewing or whatever so we can punish the Politico dweebs again.

Thank you to Kvelertak for the use of our theme song, "Nattesferd."
