It's not bad, actually. It applies to:

• People who don't already have existing dental insurance
• Families that make less than $90k/yr (which I think is higher than the median household income across the country)

This is probably (hopefully) a stopgap to prevent backlash from shortsighted (imo) employers and employees who had Dental and considered it a job perk.

Agree with other person that replied. Most people with healthcare through their job were already covered by basic plans ("job perk"). It's fine I guess as long as our teeth are getting dealt with!

Would love to see optometry up here next.

only for some people and not universal?

1. they're the most impacted
2. the gov providing for them robs no mercenary-care provider lobbyists
3. with proper voting our gov will soon expand it to support the lowest unsupported income tier and again and again.

If we vote for polyestre and his crew, though, it's gone.
