Mary Hackney: Do you really think that "Medicare for all" would provide private rooms for every patient? Hahahahahaha. How about 6-bed wards like what the military had when I had my babies? Good care - just no perks. Or my first kid in the mid 80s? No epidural - I was a "routine" delivery. An hour after delivery I was taken on a  walking tour of the ward, shown where clean sheets were kept if I wanted to change my bed while a patient there. In areas where there really weren't enough doctors good luck. Everybody's "entitled" but that doesn't mean you're going to get care when you need it.
