But it doesn't save lives.

Wrong.

Total lie.

yeah we europeans and alot other countries have it wrong huh? pay 130 euro a month with an 1 time own risk of 385 euro annual. think again.

A Dr as in physician not theology would tell you differently check out Massachusetts first in health and education

A tryout with limited resources u cant compare to the full extend of single-payer systems like those we have in Europe. To be honest.

So we want the same people who gave us DMV and TSA levels of efficiency and quality service to be responsible for our health?

Call your health insurer to find out what a surgical procedure will cost out of pocket and see what kind of service you get

Insurer doesn't know costs. Neither does Medicare. BOTH know what out-of-pocket caps are, though

You realize this is just an argument in favor of having a government agency negotiate consistent and predictable rates for services, right

Government can't cheat the market. If they fix prices and have huge demand you are going to have a supply shortage for any good.

Much better to let people die horribly because they are poor than to wait in line for an hour and spend less money overall, I agree.

No no... wait 20 weeks, on average for needed care. So that means you are potentially letting folks die because care didn't come in time.

It's almost as if they want the VA waiting lines to be the standard for everyone else.

By that logic make everything in life single payer

Single player sucks
