The United States could easily have single payer. It's just a matter of priorities, if the United Kingdom and Canada have it, saying we can't afford it is a lie.

 Also tort-reform is a tired conservative talking point that has been analyzed to death. It isn't a significant contributor to healthcare costs. Furthermore the rise in premiums for Doctors and Surgeons did not come from large awards given to "Ambulance Chasers" but rather from unchecked consolidation by large insurance firms like AIG who cornered this market and immediately raised premiums to make record profits, all while pushing tort reform legislation at the state level that hurts patients and the ability to seek appropriate civil justice.
