Insurance Company and big medical propaganda always pushes the idea that tax increases will be necessary for offering basic healthcare for citizens. It's obviously not true, it would just necessitate a reallocation of the existing tax money collected in the budget, something that will never, ever happen. There is no universal healthcare for American citizens because the government does not care about individual people. The country shells out billions and billions of dollars every year in foreign aid while actual citizens suffer physically, mentally, emotionally and financially with our ridiculous healthcare system.

Taxes will go up. There's no doubt about that. However, it will be a reallocation of dollars coming from paychecks. Instead of paying $250 biweekly to an insurance company, you'd pay a percentage of your gross like you pay Medicare/SS today. It's really simple. We know what is spent on medical services every year. Establish a baseline of care and tax for it. Single payer should be much easier to sell than it is.
