I'm against this, but the large health insurance companies are also so fricking worthless, that it is bound to happen.

You see how people made a big enough stink got gay marriage legalized and weed legalized and many different states. We hold the power to make these things better


Both of those gave additional things, if you will, to a very small group of the population. They didn't change the way the majority of the population did things. Single payer would change the way everyone does something in order to appease a small percentage of people. And would be disastrous for everyone else.

. We pay way more per capita and our outcomes are much worse.


The reason we pay more is that we can pay more. We are a wealthy nation.

And our outcomes are not worse unless you’re measuring outcomes that don’t mean anything.
