Two things:

1. VOTE FOR UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE.

2. Right now, OP, you really should be on the ACA. It might be more expensive, but if ever you need your life saved, and much more expensive treatment than a pregnancy test and X-ray... it will come through for you. Instead of thinking that you came out ahead of having an ACA premium bill every month for, supposedly, nothing, think about the fact that people like you die for lack of affordable care when they're uninsured. I am on the ACA, with Kaiser, and it's affordable for my budget.

What do you envision universal health care looking like? We have a form of it via the military and it sucks.   We pay a lot out of pocket to just be seen and many things are denied or not covered.  Getting a primary care appointment takes weeks to months and you rarely see your doctor or the doctor you scheduled with.  Specialists are months out or you are referred out and the doctor can have really bad ratings or could be an hour or two drive away (a problem if you don't drive much with health issues).  They are quick to blow off concerns rather than test and put effort into treating it.  I wish we had private insurance.[/quote]
