        And yes, different ways to socialize healthcare: #SinglePayer in Canada, heavily regulated multipayer (Germany), completely state-run (UK)

        Odd how many Americans don't realize that we have an NHS -- the VA.

        On scale of 1 (totally dysfunctional mess) to 10 (model of humane efficiency) where would you place the VA?

        We actually think of it as the public health system in Aus. Because it is public taxes being used to aid and cure the public.

        NHS creates competition to drive down costs for large contracts. Not beholden to greedy insurance companies and pharmaceutical interests.

        This is the biggest problem with Obamacare IMHO, mandating the overhead of the private insurance layer. Insurance ≠ healthcare.

        The Netherlands make it work, but it's so heavily regulated that I doubt U.S. insurers would be happy with their model.

        Yeah, but we could equally argue that single payer costs more than a purely free market system lol. Clearly the link is government spending,

        How much a government spends will impact prices. It's consistent globally. So no gov. Spending would actually decrease prices further
