To make this a bigger and bigger issue and vote out every old boomer who is against it?
Like, do we need them to all get in the hospital before they realize how necessary this is or something?
They just think they are invincible and can ignore going to a doctor so they never have to pay?

Young people (18-29) do not make up a significant enough percentage of the electorate to be able to bully the remaining 83% of the electorate into doing what they want, and thats with a theoretical 100% turnout.

Because even if they did all come out, only half of them would vote in favor of healthcare reform.

This kind of contempt for young people just shows you're malignantly ignorant. It isn't nor should it be on the young to fix what their siblings, parents, and grandparents are still too backwards to support.

We can't expect old people to help when they caused this.

The elderly population is gigantic, they're all sick and needing assistance and it's young people who have to take care of them but aren't being given the resources to do it.

Read the definition then go back and consider the question you asked above.

Note: continuing to double down on this is just you admitting you have contempt for young people, making your "concern" at being called malignantly ignorant for having that contempt a pretty sly example of hypocrisy. You won't dispute your contempt but you'll fight to the death to not he called on it.

Plus if we want to go there, grammatically you're leveraging the word "malignant" to assert that I said you "hate yourself". But that's grammatically nonsensical, as I didn't say you're malignantly malignant.

What I actually said is that you're ignorant, and malignantly so because it isn't hard to come to grips with the systemic issues that plague the young in the US and recognize that trying to pin the blame for the US healthcare system on the most disenfranchised age demographic in the US is just a farce.

US healthcare was already a nightmare before any of these people were born yet you're too addicted to your contempt that you'll directly absolve everyone older of any responsibility in pitching in.

The actual reality is everyone needs to step up and do their part, but you don't get to act like the young don't have a lot of reasons for not being able to, and especially not without being called out as the contemptuous piece of trash you are for doing so.

And not only do give all of that money to an insurance company - but you STILL have to pay for any healthcare you receive. Go the hospital? Want to see a specialist? Want a medication? Lab work? Please pay hundreds/thousands of dollars for those services.

Boomers vote in large numbers and believe in Fox News. I mean young voters did a good job in 2022 Midterms but we need a huge wave of young voters to step up and exile the boomers out of power.

Let's ignore the last part, and focus on the first two sentences.

This is all true.

To blame the "young people", statistically the smallest voting demographic, and the one with the smallest representation politically, for not making the changes you feel need to be made, is being very short sighted.

You're basically asking why someone didn't hit a Grand Slam, even though no one was on base.

Exactly. And in terms of what can be realistically expected, any mechanism thats successfully employed to get that demographic out at higher and higher percentages is inherently going to cause similar turnout boosts in other age groups, nullifying the advantage.

You'd literally have to have older demos either sit out or change their politics dramattically.
