10 years ago, we almost had medicare for all as a public healthcare option.

The ACA was 15 years ago, and it wasn't even remotely close to Medicare for all. It was a halfassed Heritage Foundation policy that wouldn't cover everyone before just enough members of the Democratic caucus killed the public option, which was the intent from the very start.
