The first presidential candidate to include a proposal for #UniversalHealthcare was #TheodoreRoosevelt in 1912, but the first tentative, partial step toward it was taken by #LyndonBJohnson on #ThisDayInHistory in 1965 with the addition of #Medicare & #Medicaid to #SocialSecurity.

Senator Mitch McConnell is on medical leave with 100% pay and 100% free healthcare.
He thinks YOU don't deserve that, and Republicans have worked against that level of care for ordinary Americans (that is YOU).

Mitch McConnell is still not dead, thanks to access to the best health care in the US, as all of Congress has.
If he was in the situation millions in the US are in, uninsured, McConnell might still be dead today.

Why is Mark Carney getting praise from groups and organizations that have spent years campaigning for private health care in Canada?
When the loudest applause is coming from groups pushing a two-tier health system, Canadians should be very worried.

OTD in 1944, Tommy Douglas becomes the Premier of Saskatchewan. In just a few short years he would implement #UniversalHealthcare in the province and spark similar movement across Canada, ultimately resulting in a national program. He is undoubtedly one of the most impactful Canadians in history and we need another like him to deliver us from capitalism's hold on government policy.
