Human Right
What is the primary emphasis needed for informing Americans
in a way that will best help us achieve improved Medicare for All?
— Fully understand "human rights principles" that are associated with health care
... and demand our rights related to those principles
... and expect a law to provide those rights.
... or ...
— Fully understand what incredible results improved Medicare for All can provide
... and tell politicians and candidates we want those specific results
... and make certain they provide a good law that provides those results.Answer: the latter!
Do we want "Human Right" on most of our signs or "Medicare for All"?
Answer: the latter!
We need as many millions of Americans as possible (out of our population of over 230 million adults) to be informed ... and, as a result, know WHY we want and need improved Medicare for All: the incredible results of efficiency. We need to have Americans informing themselves and each other in very small groups so that Americans collectively have the following general knowledge**:
— Health-care-for-all makes good common sense.**
— Health-care-for-all efficiency gets incredible results.**
— Due to the incredible results that we will have for ourselves and our country, improved Medicare for All via single-payer health care is the patriotic position to take when it comes to the subject of health care.** General knowledge that is backed up by the information that is provided at the bottomline web page (What Americans Should Know) ... about which they were informed in small groups and had an opportunity to hear and be heard about that information.

Discussion
If an apartment caught on fire, it’s best that the fire department come to save that apartment and the entire apartment building.
Unlike the example of a residence on fire, health care situations are potentially critical for everyone, even more than some other social services. When there is a contagious disease, it is best to be already set up to help the entire population.
When a country is being hurt economically, such as the U.S. is from decades of business/job cut-backs and now the dramatic negative impact of medical tourism, then everyone suffers; providing health care becomes a contributor to being economically competitive. Whether one calls all of this a human right or a common good, it simply makes common sense.
Finally, if even one person in our group or our society has unnecessary pain and suffering, shouldn’t we take action? Is that called a “human right” for that person in our group or simply caring for them as a member of our group?
