Publisher's Summary
Single payer is the tool - health justice is the goal!
Single payer healthcare is not complicated: The government pays for all care for all people. It's cheaper than our current model, and most Americans (and their doctors) already want it. So what's the deal with our current healthcare system, and why don't we have something better?
In Health Justice Now, Timothy Faust explains what single payer is, why we don'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.

Tim Faust did not disappoint
I thought this was an incredibly poignant discussion of the limitations of the single payer plan, not as a deterrent to establishing such a program, but instead to make the argument that it is only a first step toward true justice for all. It is also relevant beyond the US borders. As a Canadian RN, I saw, in this book, many of the challenges inherent to my country's current healthcare program, as well as avenues to explore in the interest of improving out care provision.
