Sure, Biden talks a good game like he did when he summarized the findings of US Strategy on Countering Corruption:
"Corruption robs citizens of equal access to vital services, denying the
right to quality health care, public safety, and education. [...Corruption] has been shown to
significantly curtail the ability of states to respond effectively to
public health crises."
And yet as Sirota reports Biden's plan promotes rapid COVID tests to be individually purchased and maybe reimbursed by health insurance companies, instead of just having the government provide them for free up front like they do with vaccines. This just feeds private industry and is an example of the corporate corruption inherent to our healthcare system, all unaddressed by the 'strategy' supposed to correct it but instead just covers it up. Medicare for All actually handles such corruption, but talking about it while yet maintaining it is the result we get with Biden and the Democorps.
