Medicare for all is an exercise in moral persuasion. Aren't the taxes, which would by necessity be levied disproportionally upon wealthier Americans, an attempt to deal politically with the larger social issue of income and wealth inequality? Medicare for all will become a serious public policy if and when it creates a surge in public opinion. That's how "no chance at all" reforms," whether Medicare in 1965 or same-sex marriage in 2015, became law in our great country. What seems impossible in one generation is taken for granted in another.
