Governmental control of the means of production.....in this ONE case.....takeover of the healthcare system.

Want more examples? This, by itself would break the economy.

We have the most hideously expensive healthcare system in the world....which leads to the question why does this for profit system get so much money and cover so few people?

Hammer the drug industry and keep them within reasonable profit margin boundaries, go to a clinic wellness system instead of paying emergency room rates for colds and fevers, standardize hospital costs and fees to a reasonable standard, and end insurance companies and incorporate that money into medicine and care, and we can cover everyone in this country for less than is going into the system.

Yeh....let’s “hammer” those drug companies!
After all, they’ve developed all the drugs we’ll ever need and for ever after! Hell, they’ve developed a bunch we don’t need!

Let those geniuses, in central Africa, develop their own drugs!

Have the government operate emergency care.....works real well at the VA, right?

“Cut hospital costs”? Have you ever researched Russian hospitals? Maybe you would prefer Chinese hospitals. Meh, eliminate hospitals.

Let’s just trash the whole existing system; throw out common sense.....make sh!t up as we go along! What could go wrong?

What I intended to be asking was what plan and who.. not an example from a blog..

so... who wants government to control production and how?

government is not in the healthcare business... you think the ACA is a government owned intity?
It is nothing but a coordination of healthcare options..

The economy is now close to the breaking point with pressure of tariffs, trade deficits and slow down of business investment.. overall gloomy...

You do know the definition of socialism, don’t you?

Exactly why I didn't v**e for her. Within three months Russia+US=war. A few months after that China picks up the pieces. I don't think so.
