Under single payer the government handles the money and pays all the bills. Instead of 1,500 payers you would have one. Single payer is not free, there is a payroll tax of 4.5%, $4.50 for every 100 dollars you make. No premiums, no co-pays, no deductibles, no out of networks. This is only for US citizens.

THe GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO GET OUT OF HEALTH CARE!

The problem is that people think that they are entitled to have FREE health care!

ACCESS is not a problem unless you want to consider that the number of illegal aliens that have over run our health care system in he frame work set by the GOVERNMENT!

WHen this ass says the UNinsured he is referring to illegals and unemployed lazy entitlement seekers of FREE HEALTH CARE!

THe 8million children are ILLEGAL Aliens!!
