I don’t want a replacement.

Because the way things work now is so great? Even people with insurance are scared to use it.

The overwhelming majority like it. Single payer health care has roughly the same support, thirteen percent, that abolishing all government healthcare does, fifteen percent

I don’t think that’s true

It’s true.

I give you a 2020 poll and you cite something from 2019… okie dokie. May be try 1998 poll for gay marriage.

Lols. You missed the distinction that matters, abolishing private insurance that most people are happy with.

The support for single payer is much higher than you said. I am sure very few people support abolishing private insurance.

You don’t need to abolish private insurance for single payer to exist.

K?

Apparently we have a difference of opinion of what the word single means. You don’t have to abolish it for universal healthcare, you do for single payer.

What is a single payer healthcare system?

In a single payer healthcare system, rather than multiple competing health insurance companies, a single public or quasi-public agency takes responsibility for financing healthcare for all residents.

Thanks for the definition. Canada…

Canada does not have single payer. They have universal healthcare.

The issue is beginning to take shape. Which proposal of a single payer system seeks to prevent supplemental insurance.

@WuWei

I looked at it a couple of weeks ago - can’t afford it.

You are not poor enough to get federal subsidies.

Those who get the subsidies are doing fine.

Allan

I would be doing fine too if you paid half of mine.

[biggestal99]

@WuWei

I would be doing fine too if you paid half of mine.

For you anything. Lol.

Mine costs 30k a year.

Yikes that’s 15k I gotta come up with…

Maybe not.

Allan

[WuWei]

I don’t care how much yours costs.

[biggestal99]

@WuWei

I don’t care how much yours costs.

Lol I do.

Allan

[WuWei]

Pay mine.

[biggestal99]

@WuWei

Pay mine.

How much?

Allan

[WuWei]

@biggestal99

@WuWei

Pay mine.

How much?

Allan

All of it.

[biggestal99]

@WuWei

All of it.

You can’t afford even a dollar?

Please…

Biden and dems need to now move fast to strengthen and fix ACA.

Do not wait on this.

[Ben_Natuf]

why would you need supplemental insurance if you have single payer?

[FreeAndClear]

@Ben_Natuf

why would you need supplemental insurance if you have single payer?

Same reason why you buy umbrella insurance.

[Ben_Natuf]

except that with single payer its all paid for by… you know… a single payer.

[FreeAndClear]

@Ben_Natuf

except that with single payer its all paid for by… you know… a single payer.

Except of course it’s not.

Single payer doesn’t mean pay of every claim or treatment.

You know this. I know you do. So let’s get to the point you are trying to make.

[Ben_Natuf]

yes, that is exactly what single payer means.

[FreeAndClear]

@Ben_Natuf

yes, that is exactly what single payer means.

No a Public insurance company doesn’t mean payment on all claims.

Death panels!!!

[Ben_Natuf]

right, and you think insurers will pay fr the unapproved and experimental treatments the fda does not approve? its also not a"public insurance company", its the government.

Fair enough. That’s not a difference in semantics but to answer your question it depends on the policy you purchase.
