Baucus backs single-payer health system
Source: Bozeman Daily Chronicle
It’s time for America to consider seriously a single-payer, government-run health system, says Max Baucus, Montana’s longest serving U.S. senator, former ambassador to China and one of the chief architects of Obamacare.
“My personal view is we’ve got to start looking at single-payer,” Baucus said Thursday night at Montana State University. “I think we should have hearings…. We’re getting there. It’s going to happen.”
It was a startling turnaround for Baucus, who eight years ago was chairman of the powerful Senate Finance Committee and a key Democratic leader in the political battles that ultimately passed the Affordable Care Act.
Back then, Baucus said, he felt adamantly that Congress wouldn’t pass a government-run system like Canada’s. So it was the one alternative he refused to put “on the table” for consideration.

Baucus is actually serving the citizens of the country? 
But whatever, it's good to see single payer picking up steam. (Of course, we could have done this with Hillary, without all the drama)
...actually not from Ghandi:
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win”
We are moving appreciably from stage 3 to stage 4.
Why am I not buying it?
