Can anyone tell me why the Senate and Congress aren't listening to the majority that want Single Payer?
We are paying way too much for coverage. We can't afford it. It's not better health care, we don't live as long as people in other countries. Our companies can't compete globally as they have to cover us, so they move out of the US. Doctors won't take patients that don't have coverage, so the patient goes to an Emergency room, that is more expensive. If you think the insurance companies aren't making out, consider that they've recently dumped 38 million in DC making sure they can continue with their money making.

23 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhat kind of health care system do you want?
I want single-payer or universal because when you take the profit out of the system it will be less expensive. The countries that have it, have higher taxes, but the service costs less. People are suffering and dying now. Could higher taxes, and a less expensive system be worse than that?

Single payer or universal health care is less expensive than our alternative. But we will never get real health care unless we get out in the streets in droves and demand it.
