Important analysis of the impacts of Trump on healthcare in the USA by leading analysts: Adam Gaffney, David U. Himmelstein, and Steffie Woolhandler published in the New York Review July 8 2025 (here). Their detailed review of the Trump devastation ends with the following:
“We find ourselves living under a federal government unconcerned with the well-being of its people. The administration’s assault on health—coupled with Republicans’ planned surge in spending for the military and deportations—indicates that it cares far less about preserving the lives of Americans than about controlling, surveilling, and policing them. All of us ought to fight to minimize harm from these depredations. In the process, we should channel the dismay they inspire not just into restoring the nation’s health institutions as they were, but into reimagining them so that, at last, they truly serve the public good.”
