I have looked and I don't buy it. I think any realistic transition to a single payer healthcare system in the United States is going to result in us still being the most expensive health care system in the world for lots of complex downstream consequences reasons. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't do it. It means we should just embrace paying the most to get the highest quality product instead of pretending that the goal should be to somehow be less expensive than everyone else while still getting the best care. It's unrealistic. You get what you pay for.
