MODERATORS
Such a great policy for so many reasons. Equitable access to dental care for everyone leads to significantly improved health outcomes overall.
Agreed, and from the article, 3/4 of voters agree too! There's no reason why teeth should be treated so differently to the rest of healthcare.
The dental industry doesn't want a single-payer at all. That's the problem, all the experts in the field are operating in their own interests.
Unfortunately ~49% of the population still think that "user-pays" is fair.
