Essentially, do other things with their life that they can’t do now because they can’t afford to give up their health insurance.

In my view, the sooner we can disassociate health insurance from one’s employer the more freer and better off all of the US will be.
Ideologically, I'm with you on all that. I just don't think that medicare 4 all is a winning platform right now, and don't want to make that bet when losing gets more Trump. I also don't think that Bernie winning president gets us Universal health care.
