Do you think a single payer system would lower costs?
Not without rationing. To lower costs you have to reduce utilization. The question is how are the socialists going to reduce utilization. You can only cut reimbursements so far.

What do you mean? You can definitely cut reimbursements far enough. What if you raise taxes and implement a single payer that has Medicaid level reimbursement or lower for everything
For the record I think single payer (the way we would do it) would increase spending, but I just don't follow your logic here
