A progressive President should also be able to simply order universal health care. And without taxing, Congress could simply credit the costs. All inflated costs should be reined in regardless. What a great story that would be!:

Serious atmosphere. Acting President Alecta O'Roura-Chavez is a force at the lectern in the packed press room:

“Section 1881A of the Social Security Act refers to any individuals subject to an 'environmental exposure.'” Alecta pounds her fist on the lectern. “This Act enables the Department of Health and Human Services to stipulate that exposed individuals get a single-payer, free health care system. Because of this Act, Libby, Montana has for years already had full Medicare For All for the entire community, because it was exposed to airborne asbestos due to area mining.”

Alecta meets the eyes of people in each area of the room – left, right, near, far.

“We will not allow a corrupt Supreme Court to stop us. The Court has no right to place themselves and their actions above the law. All of America has been exposed to COVID, chemicals, toxins, the flu, and so on, and is generally in poor health, so by law, Section 1881A of the Social Security Act, I hereby authorize free health care for all, for all of America. I am issuing an immediate Executive Order to authorize expanded Medicare For All nationwide – granting the entire country free health care and total medical debt relief. This Order greatly benefits the people and the businesses and the communities, even the world. And this Order meets one major ransom demand to secure the release of President Silver and Ellen Lin.”
