re: Single-payer would be a nightmare for Americans

My very conservative mother and step-father hate the idea of single payer, yet they are very satisfied with their health care now. It's Tricare, which is essentially the military version of single payer.
Now, I'm sure there are plenty of people that despise Tricare, but there are plenty of people that desire BC/BS, Aetna, Kaiser Permanente, etc. There's also multitude than can afford none of them.
I don't care for government bureaucracy so much, but I'm also not so keen on the plans by the GOP. I see no less potential for bureacracy in those plans.
You can argue the States rights platforms, but when you live in a state like Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, etc., you're arguing for your system to be arbitrated not by sly foxes, but by the most corruptible wolves this side of the Fort Lee bridge.
Their plans so far also don't add to the promises of the guy that many of you voted for as president.

Tricare is much more like a public option insurance, than a single payer system.
