I also suspect he is a shill. He's trying to derail support for Trump's bill via confusion by conflating totally separate concepts (pricing transparency has nothing what-so-ever to do with Medicare for All). "Muddying the waters" via confusion is a common shill tactic. He also totally ignores good points I've made and harps on certain talking points, which are more shill tactics. However, shills are usually well-spoken. This guy sounds a bit unhinged, so I wonder if he's maybe someone who is just not in a good place right now mentally speaking, and he's holding his sanity together by holding tightly onto his vision of a better future. Either way, it's sad reflection of the state of our country: sad to sell your soul for money as a shill, and sadder that so many people are struggling to hold their sanity together.
