The only equitable way
EVERYBODY PAYS.
Exempt food, medicine and education and share the load equitably. The is so much money in the USA being made that a small consumption tax on the turnover would raise $1 trillion a year in new revenue to pay for a lot of things. It would take maybe only 6% - 8% more to pay for universal healthcare. The way it is today in the USA maybe $500 billion is going into the insurers pockets every year.
