Health Justice Now: Single Payer and What Comes Next (Activist Citizens' Library)

"The best concise explanation of why the United States needs single-payer health care â€” and needs to widen the definition of health care itself."â€” The Washington Post
Â
Single payer healthcare is not complicated: the government pays for all care for all people. Itâ€™s cheaper than our current model, and most Americans (and their doctors) already want it. So whatâ€™s the deal with our current healthcare system, and why donâ€™t we have something better?

In Health Justice Now, Timothy Faust explains what single payer is, why we donâ€™t yet have it, and how it can be won. He identifies the actors that have misled us for profit and political gain, dispels the myth that healthcare needs to be personally expensive, shows how we can smoothly transition to a new model, and reveals the slate of humane and progressive reforms that we can only achieve with single payer as the springboard.

In this impassioned playbook, Faust inspires us to believe in a world where we could leave our job without losing healthcare for ourselves and our kids; where affordable housing is healthcare; and where social justice links arm-in-arm with health justice for us all.
