Re: A specious argument

It's a major issue, possibly the greatest issue in the debate, and glossing over it with 'Spain has a single payer system' is completely meaningless and useless in finding a solution.

You keep saying w are "different" because we are "different". But you cite no sources or facts: Just your opinion.

I for one, do not believe we are sufficiently different, except that the United States funds its health care through private companies that consume 20-30% of the costs in administration.

I do not consider that to be a system worthy of preservation.

You, of course, knowing that insurance companies are contributing about $1 million a day to killing any changes, and that insurance companies give about 90% of their political donations to Republicans, will go along with them and try your best to make sure nothing changes that does not benefit Republicans, because you are more loyal to the Party than to your country.
