Should we still be demanding “Medicare for All?”

I’m losing interest in the Medicare For All “branding,” largely because “Medicare” “Advantage” at this point has successfully sold its shit to a majority of Medicare recipients, and their PR people are absolutely gloating with their “Medicare Advantage Majority” website.

I’m deeply worried that at some point our demands for Medicare For All will suddenly find their way into the Overton Window, but the catch will be that it results in “Medicare” “Advantage” for all. Single Payer, I think, is much better branding than Medicare For All, and even Socialized Medicine is starting to seem like better messaging than Medicare For All (even though one of my biggest pet peeves in the world of political messaging is equating socialism with the public sector). I think the rallying cry I most want to hear at this point is “Get The Private Sector The Fuck Out Of Health Insurance!”
