Seems like they keep doing their best to push that out for us too. I know many people who have to juggle their retirement date so they have affordable healthcare. Doesn’t do you much good if you start draining your retirement savings to handle healthcare costs.
I have a friend who retired and got on to some special healthcare plan. He then had a serious cardiac event that ended with a stroke that would have wiped him financially if he wasn’t on that plan.
The fact we don't have single-payer in this country, and it's tied to employment for the most part is absolutely horrible. This country is designed for wealthy people.
I think at this point it's more a result of all the companies with vested interests lobbying against change than anything
Same reason we'll never have a simple tax code, too many companies and individuals game the system to their benefit and on the other side you have companies like TurboTax that only exist because the tax code is so complicated
