Correct. And it's more expensive, as it will be under single payer as you're just adjusting the payer while ignoring costs.
That’s a false premise. Single payer healthcare covers citizens for less money, per capita, than our system.

I️ support single payer because it is the best system to control costs. What is your plan?

You're spewing nonsense. Changing the payer ignores costs thusly we still have higher costs.

I'd remove you imbeciles from the process. You're too stupid to comprehend the difference between cost and payment yet are of high enough self-esteem to have an opinion anyway. That's the type of stupidity that got us here to begin with so I'd deregulate which lets the market and intelligent people return costs to fair value. Charity takes care of the poor with the proper strings attached to encourage the changes that will get them out of poverty.
OK. Let me know when you are able to discuss the issue with some form of class or decorum.

My day is fine. Is there a reason that you ignore what I'm saying about costs? You're surely smart enough to understand the difference between payer.

Of course not, you lack the depth to discuss it any further than platitudes.

All of the above.
Well, there you go. You're really only lowering costs by using the power of fiat. (I declare that costs be lowered!) It's not that anything is more efficient - it's that you're saying we're simply not going to spend as much.

If you declare that doctors are going to be paid less than a market rate for their services, then fewer people are going to want to be doctors. And that's not a great situation - instead of our best and brightest going to medical school, our best and brightest will be software engineers.

exactly how do you operate hospitals that are losing lots of money or pharma companies with large losses? Never mind that dictating what doctors make will not make for a large contingent of doctors to be available

what is hilarious is you bitch at AG for a discussion but you are a smart guy and know that just wishing for all the costs in the healthcare industry to be lower is not anything close to reality and is feasibly impossible. But your one line answer is there will be lower costs.....great discussion

so rationing and not servicing people, you want that I guess unless you are the person that needs medical help. I have health insurance same as I have car, house, LTD, Life, Long term care and they work just fine. I am not in favor of the UK model knowing people in that model, it sucks btw

or better yet, why do people from canada come to the usa for care?

So by overtaxing their citizens and rationing care. Ok, but not the healthcare I want.
