IIRC, there are those, such as David Kaiser, who believe that the UK's 4T didn't end until the late 40s or early 50s.  In that case, the National Health and other British social insurance programs would have been implemented in a 4T.

Late '40s I can believe, 50s seems like it would be pushing it.  But I dunno, if Kaiser or Chas were here I could probably get a decent explanation for it.

Either way, it doesn't preclude a Dem (or whatever) sliding in and pushing some stuff through in the '29 to '30 timeframe.

I read a comment somewhere that the push to kill the ACA may be the only way to get a single payer system in place.  We'll see.
