On Tuesday, MSNBC anchor Katy Tur hoped the United States would be reshaped into a socialist country following the coronavirus pandemic as she recited a wish list of left-wing agenda items for Democrats to pursue amid the crisis.

While interviewing New York Congressman Max Rose during her 2:00 p.m. ET hour show, Tur urged that liberal lawmakers look to “the future once we get past this and focus again on the economy.” She longed for “permanent change” to society:

What do you think is going to be put in place and what could be a permanent change in the way that we do business here in this country? Will there be a restructuring or a boosting of the social safety net? Is this going to be a call for something more like universal health care, more like a single-payer system to make sure that everybody is covered, once these people start leaving the hospital and realize they have thousands of dollars in medical bills because they caught a virus they didn’t have a choice about. Is that going to be something that should be considered. What about plans for getting people back to work? Getting people back to work not in their regular jobs which might not be viable any longer, but jobs that are green, jobs working towards a more efficient, greener economy?

While Rose shared her dream of “achieving universal health care,” even he warned: “I sincerely believe that single-payer is not the route.”

Filling in for Tur on Monday’s show, anchor Yasmin Vossoughian pressed likely Democratic nominee Joe Biden on whether he would now support “single-payer health care.” Like Rose, the former Vice President was actually less liberal that the supposed journalist asking the question, refusing to sign on to a complete government takeover of the health care system.

As a massive public health crisis continues, the far-left media can only think of how they can use it to push their radical ideological goals.
