Maybe not young, but too young to die of a treatable cancer.

That is already illegal. Prior auth was not a necessary intervention for this problem.

Honestly? Congress. Your Congresspeople need to hear how bad things really are with these companies before they'll bother to do anything about it

Republican obstruction and wanton destruction is responsible for the lack of progress. Refusing Medicaid expansions and then overturning the individual mandate is what gutted the plan.

And sure you could jump right into single payer without any incremental change. But you're going to put the 400,000 Americans currently working in the health insurance industry out of work, if you do that. Which is not a small consideration. (That's per a CBO analysis of the feasibility of single payer, which does conclude it would save money, but it will require a massive work transition.)
