Am I the only one who wants Single Payer? [View all]

[Coolest Ranger]

Single-payer health care is a system in which the government, rather than private insurers, pays for all health care costs. Single-payer systems may contract for healthcare services from private organizations (as is the case in Canada) or may own and employ healthcare resources and personnel (as is the case in the United Kingdom). The term "single-payer" thus only describes the funding mechanism—referring to health care financed by a single public body from a single fund—and does not specify the type of delivery, or for whom doctors work. Although the fund holder is usually the state, some forms of single-payer use a mixed public-private system.

Now that we know what single payer is and I myself am a HUGE supporter of Single Payer no Donald Trump pun intended, who else supports Single Payer. I am of the firm belief that if we put that on the ballot, bet you people would turn out and vote in numbers for it.
