(39,909 posts)It is YOU who keeps wandering off into the wilderness to avoid the
Inconvenient Truths.
If you care to go back an re-read this thread,
you will see that I brought up the success of Medicare while YOU were expressing your Shock and Awe at discovering that we already has several successful,
efficient Single Payer Systems Up & Running in the USA,
and that, contrary to what President Obama said,
we did NOT have to build them from scratch!
Many of us pointed that out in 2009,
as my link above in Post #8 of this thread demonstrates.
The Audacity of "Middle of the Road"

So, here we are,
back at the beginning,
after your many diversions, tap dances,
and other amusing attempts to wander Off Topic,
and I'm asking the same question:
"Why are you so shocked to find out that we already HAVE successful Single Payer Systems in the USA?
We told you so in 2009.
Why didn't YOU and the NY Times listen back when it might have helped America?
Checkmate!
