“Simple answer. You can’t achieve a single payer system with private insurance plans.”
That is it exactly. Make the private insurance more expensive than Obamacare and everyone will be forced to enroll in Obamacare....single payer.
You would have thought that the insurance companies would have seen this coming and would have balked at getting in bed with the ACA.
There’s no way insurance companies are going away.
They have tons of money, legions of lobbyists, and dispense mountains of campaign cash.
No politician is going to derail that gravy train.
