Medicare is not really single payer. There is still at least one
private insurance company involved and there may be 2 or more.



Several of the European nations have a universal system that involves
private insurers and also allows them to sell supplemental policies.
They've mostly cleaned out their sharks.

The open question is whether Americans would ever tolerate European
level taxes.
You also have a huge fight on your hands from doctors, lawyers and
insurance companies, a fiscal perpetual motion machine that throws
unconscionable amounts of money at our politicians.

The remains of the middle class, those kicked out of it and those who find
the door slammed shut will restructure the country properly.
