        The feel-bad, unsustainable cost of US healthcare as % of GDP US: 17.1% France 11.7% Germany 11.3% Canada 10.9% Australia 9.4% UK: 9.1%

        Are internat'l comparisons of US healthcare costs just "apples & oranges"? Yes: fruits of similar shape, nutritional value, cost–COMPARABLE.

        what you mean having just one administrative system involves less overhead than having 247? Who'd have imagined?

        I'm pro single payer but Sander's numbers were garbage & he knew it. Almost like politicians lie during campaigns. Obama didn't

        I tweet this less to defend Sanders than to attack the notion that single payer is on its face "economically unsustainable."

        I hearya but better I think to proudly own it, reclaim it, than cook up some new focus group-tested label.

        @davidgraeber @nytimes Depends on perspective. It's economically unsustainable for the oligarchs.
