Seems like it would solve quite a bit (especially in health care, where employer sponsored health care is a farce - especially considering the vast levels of cost sharing and insurance negotiation that go on). In addition why wouldn't a Medicare for All system not cap costs? Isn't that something people complain about - Medicare can pay less to providers than private insurance does. And allowing people who make under $100k to see doctors without working about cost or being able to go to college to get an education solves a whole Hell of a lot. It would help equalize opportunities for those on the lower end (as we like to say we are for equality of opportunity, right?) especially those who don't have generational wealth to fall back on.
