Single payer system

So instead of addressing the debt lets just look for more ways to grow mommy gov and continue ignoring the debt?

Sounds like a great plan. Let's do it.

couldn't we fund a single payer system with the money we keep?

Sure, if you believe in destroying the quality of our HEALTH CARE system (please don't confuse "Health Care" with "Health Coverage")

Government run systems are not the answer. So no, single payer is not a good option, EVER!

A much more elegant, not to mention cheaper, solution that also acknowledges the coming robotic revolution AND deals with Social Security and Medicare is a UBI.

Let' make sure qualifying Americans have a basic income of $24K a year , no welfare programs to supplement that, means tested or otherwise and buy your own insurance.

How about that?

I have a question for you lib types.

How big do you want mommy to get? In other words, where is the line that says enough of mommy. It ends here.

Because you can never define that line, the rest of us are suspicious of you.

This is the problem right here. The fact that you think those foreign aid cuts would even approach the costs of free Scandinavian type health care for all is amazing.

Does no one understand that we are talking about trillions of dollars here? Even Hillary Clinton admits we can't afford it.

The type of people that would qualify as "qualifying Americans" for a $24k yearly UBI would not take it upon themselves to buy their own insurance hence the need for a mandate for these folks.

We could also do something like, i don't know, legalize marijuana and tax it. That tax revenue would go a long, long way.
