Obamacare vs Single-Payer Health Care

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Single payer.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I've noticed, among rank and file Republicans at least, a slight opening for single-payer. People who chanted "no to socialism" eight years ago suddenly are intrigued by the idea. I know one Trump voter who frequently praises Hugo Chavez for nationalizing the oil and selling it ten cents a dollar.

Of course I don't want nationalized oil and I don't want single payer if a millionaire can't get the same right to healthcare as a pauper, but if you can make single-payer purely about healthcare and not about wealth redistribution than in a few decades it should have broad bipartisan support. We're on our way!
