Sanders may not release health plan costs by caucus day

69. This is a more reasonable post but ignores half of your original

It is true that it requires some complexity (something the american voter is not great at) in understanding that an increase in taxes that is less than an existing premium, deductible, co pay cost is a net good.

It is clear there will be resistance on all levels to any change in the american economic or health system. I saw a clip of Bernie acknowledging that today. He said the equivalent of its not that we will get a single payer system on my first day in office, its just that I will not lose it as a goal and keep fighting for it. He is a political realist as are most of his supporters on this issue.

Your last post does identify one of the reasons that it will be a huge fight which we might lose for years. However, your original post also had anti-government rheteoric about governments wasting money as an attack on the efficiency of single payer. Both governments and private sectors have some inefficiencies, corruptions, and waste, just our current system without government involvement has more of these three items.
