You're not, but politicians won't change anything because they don't actually care

The only ones who don't actually care are Republicans, Democrats just care about disappointing things and/or to a disappointing degree.

Let's not forget that it was Republicans & Manchin who are the reason that only those on Medicaid have their insulin price capped at $35, when it was meant to be for everybody. And even that $35 cap in and of itself is pretty big for improving U.S. healthcare.

It's just that for those of us who see no logical reason we don't already have a similar system to every other industrialized nation, it's going to feel like nothing is ever being done.

Which is why I say they care to a disappointing degree, because they find these niche focal points that while helping certain people, and obviously any improvement is better than no improvement, the establishment Dems don't want to overhaul the whole system in the necessary way it needs to be.
