A single payer system would have such lower administration costs. Private insurers use only 70% on health care. The other 30% pays for workers to kick people off the roles and for the CEO bonuses plus every doctor's office and hospital has to employ many people just to deal with the insurance companies to make sure they get payed. Medicare uses 97% for health care. This 27% would pay for a lot of uninsured and underinsured people! If every other developed nation has some form of universal health coverage why are we the only folks who don't?????? If everyone else was having such trouble with this I'm sure they would reform........ And we are the least healthy of all of the developed nations!

I have a cousin who is on the right and she doesn't have health insurance and still doesn't want the government to give her health insurance!
