He's right but we need to demand fairness from the private sector and not rely on the government. This is America.

More double talk from Obama. Government should not run health care, I agree, our taxes should pay for Medicare for all. Just like the roads we drive upon, the services provided by the fire department and the police department, the post office, the public parks & national forests enjoyed by families and individuals. Student loan programs, etc. etc. etc. Health care is a basic human right, not a commodity.
