Medicare for all

In the near future I will have more to say about the illegitimate child created by the union of insurance-industry campaign donors and those they give the money to. Regarding the pending "compromise":

It is now time to have a great national debate about Medicare for all, the true public option, the legitimate heir to Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, Truman, Kennedy and LBJ. If Medicare works for those over 55, why not those over 45? Thirty-five? Twenty-five?

The current battle is far from decided, but the real debate should now begin on the floor of Congress, on cable television, on talk radio, across the Internet and in precincts and town halls across the nation. The rally cry for true reformers should now be this:

Medicare for all! While we fight the current battle, we should now begin the real battle that is far too long overdue. Medicare for all!
