Single payer in 5, 4, 3 ...

I know that SP has been the conventional wisdom--the direction everyone said healthcare would go when Obamacare failed, but why would ANYONE believe that the government could get SP right when they couldn't get Obamacare to work?

"Gee, this is a good start; let's put everyone into a healthcare system where the government directs all payments and standards for service!"

” . . . but why would ANYONE believe that the government could get SP right when they couldn’t get Obamacare to work?”

The VA medical system is a real example of a health care system run by the US government.

Who think the Socialists get SP to work where’s it’s in effect NOW? Just look at Canada, or even Britain.

It doesn’t work THERE, but people expect the US to pick-up the same mantle, tweak it and ‘magically’ work?

Socialism. DOESN’T. Work.
