    Because when it’s about to get implemented, someone shouts in congress “Public healthcare is communism”.

    Looks like Red Scare backfired, huh.

      How did it backfire? It’s working exactly as intended, surely? Workers trapped by employee healthcare, huge businesses put at a substantial advantage relative to small businesses, and trillions of dollars flowing to idle shareholders in return for doing nothing useful.
