Well JFQuerry, your Bullshit is fairly consistent. Still Bullshit and very Boring but a small happy note in seeing rednecks whine and sob over the ultra rich paying their fair share. Pitifuckingfools. I don't see what all the fuss is about. Especially the crock about government being involved by the same lame-ass drug worriers begging for government intervention. Same teabog ditzo's brokering wars and pushing synthetics. So if you cut out the $100,000.00 an hour salaries of the Insurance racketeers that will drive the cost up on customers? Like Medicaid? How many seniors could even exist without Medicaid?

Single-payer health care
From Wikipedia

Single-payer health care is a public service financing the delivery of near-universal or universal health care to a given population as defined by age, citizenship, residency, or any other demographic.

Single-payer health insurance collects all medical fees and then pays for all services through a single government (or government-related) source. In wealthy nations, this kind of publicly-managed health insurance is typically extended to all citizens and legal residents.

Australia's Medicare, Canada's Medicare, the United Kingdom's National Health Service, and Taiwan's National Health Insurance are examples of single-payer universal health care systems. Medicare in the United States is an example of a single-payer system for a specified, limited group of persons within a country.

Single-payer systems may contract for healthcare services from private organizations (as is the case in Canada) or may own and employ healthcare resources and personnel (as is the case in the United Kingdom). The term single-payer thus only describes the funding mechanism—referring to health care being paid for by a single public body from a single fund—and does not specify the type of delivery, or who doctors work for. Although the fund holder is usually the government, some forms of single-payer employ a public-private system.

The health care reform debate in the United States has for several decades centered around the questions of whether fundamental reform of the system is needed, what form those reforms should take, and how they should be funded. Issues regarding publicly funded health care are frequently the subject of political debate. Whether or not a publicly funded universal health care system should be implemented is one such example.

Both advocates and critics of reform have mobilized citizens to support their views, with particularly visible demonstrations occurring as congressional leaders returned to their districts during August, 2009. As a result, the health care reform debate in the United States has been influenced by the Tea Party protest phenomenon.
