Just as health care was starting to become a "conversation" that <em>could</em> have been heading toward a single-payer solution, the union with the most leverage -- the one that could have possibly forced corporations to back single-payer -- totally caved and took on that ridiculous self-managed plan, the one that is bound to fail because the big three aren't contributing enough and because unions suck at running stuff like that. What a nightmare. That helped make national health care a nonissue, selling out the 50 million people who don't have insurance and the 100 million more who have crappy or expensive insurance. So much for solidarity. (By the way, hope your well.) The most annoying thing about the UAW’s terrible deal with the automakers last year was the complete sellout on health care.
