		Washington Gov. Jay Inslee’s public option amounts to single-payer in disguise

		Bernie Sanders is no magician when it comes to health care
			Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., is a magician. Almost single-handedly, he has moved “Medicare-for-all” – his plan to provide free, government-run health care to every American – from the political fringe to the center of Democratic Party politics.
