Like what are the practical steps to take? Stuff like universal healthcare isn’t even a controversial policy. How do we form a voting bloc around that?

We need to stop calling them tax increases, but find a better way to talk about moving who you pay medical premiums to. For a sufficiently progressive plan, perhaps most people can pay less
I think most people would pay less. But opponents of universal health care would frame the payment as a tax (especially if it depends on income), and this could definitely erode support.
This is not a trivial problem, and I think it’s why Democrats are hesitating to jump on board a supposedly “uncontroversial” policy.
