Healthcare first, but nothing can get done because of Republicans.

Education costs.
Cut the bullshit and streamline everything.
No more funding for colleges with SJW and other shit.

Health care.
Enact a single-payer health insurance system similar to Canada's that is paid for by progressive income tax rates.

Healthcare/Housing
Healthcare : Centralized records. Shipping back and forth. Paying couriers or persons to handle them. Multiple filing clerks etc drives up cost.
Cut illegal ER care. They don't have primary care doctors so they backlog Ers. And help push the 300 dollar aspirin.
Flat fee each medical procedure.
These are just a few steps.

I would pick education costs because education gives people a chance to advance and find better jobs. Better jobs = better pay to buy a better house. I really liked Bernie Sanders’ idea of free community college. If that was possible (which I truly believe it can be) then it will give many people lots of opportunity to do better.

"According to census data, 209.3 million people in the United States are 25 years old or older, and 66.9 million have a bachelor's degree or higher (such as a master's, professional or doctoral degree). That means about 68 percent of them do not have a bachelor's degree."

According to U.S. Census Bureau, 41.89% of adults 25 years old or older have obtained an Associate degree.

How will you pay for 120 million or so of adults over 25 to obtain free community college education?
Just so you know, "for public community colleges, the average tuition is approximately $4,871 per year for in-state students."
https://www.communitycollegereview.com/avg-tuition-stats/national-data
That brings the cost to about [b]$2.3 [u]TRILLION[/u] dollars[/b] to pay for the average in-state tuition so that all adults in the United States over 24 years-old will at least have an Associate degree.
