Look at medicare and medicaid if you want to see what a single payer system would look like under the present legal climate.

You don't hear seniors clamoring for medicare to be done away with and turned into block grants do you?

Ask them if they’d have liked to have been paid on their old jobs the same way a doctor is paid through medicare or medicaid and you may be surprised with the answer you get.

The leftist mentallity of taking from some one to influence some one else to get them into power and keep them there is what you are trying to sell here. Take a hint, it won’t fly.

Yes, it's my experience that seniors cherish their Medicare benefits. It's not horrible coverage by any means, just not sustainable.

OTOH primary Medicaid pts rightfully have only contempt for their captors the system. This is more in-line with expectations of SP.
