A most dishonest juvenile analysis by the right-wing rag the Wash Post.
It argues that taxing the rich is not sufficient to fund Medicare-for-all, so let's not tax the rich.
Does not mention taxing businesses or the dollars spent on healthcare by individuals or the overall cost to society.
Trashes other countries that have socialized healthcare systems.
No solutions, no suggestions, just 24x7 trashing of progressives.

"Lately, the vibe has shifted. The MAGA Republicans don’t seem to be having such a good time ransacking the place anymore.
Even the true believers are questioning the MAGA theology.
Leon Wieseltier: People are genuinely disgusted and they’re now combative.
J. Michael Luttig, former judge: The Republican Party is in shambles today. Trump eats his own.
Michael Beschloss: I don’t see people looking fearful, helpless and hopeless anymore.

"The anti-democratic radicalization of the Right has not been fueled by a sense of strength, but by a pervasive sense of weakness.
Reality has been moving away from those who refuse to imagine “America” as anything other than a land defined by white Christian patriarchal domination.
MAGA America is a minority project, its core tenets vastly unpopular with a clear majority of the people. And deep down, the Trumpist leaders know this."
