Single-Payer vs. GOP Tinkering: The TRUTH About Our Healthcare Crisis | Graham Elwood

In this video, Graham Elwood examines an Intercept report by Ryan Grim and Akela Lacy analysing the Republican Party’s failure to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Graham breaks down the internal GOP divisions involving senators like Rand Paul, John McCain, and Susan Collins, and the failure of the Graham-Cassidy bill. He contrasts piecemeal Republican healthcare tinkering with the urgent necessity of a straightforward, single-payer universal healthcare system.
