I am so surprised that they didn't go single payer, John Stewart said it last week that almost every business would love to rid themselves of the insurance and the government would love to pick it up.
I'm a conservative bit I am 10000000% for a single payer system. I would be willing to bet if you polled Americans that they would have another say 10% of taxes added on but they would not have to worry about insurance they would vote overwhelmingly for it.
I also believe that over time that health care costs would go down as the people would be able to go to a dr without bankrupting their families.
I hate aca, it's sr22 high risk auto insurance for health.
The dumb ass tea party folks wanted it held up in the hopes of getting more seats next year and killing it completely. I hate the whole lot of them from "you must pass it to see what's in it" pelosi to the Canadian that wants to run as president Cruz. (Not a jab at Canadians, more of a jab at a ###### who was a birther that now is in the same boat. But we know that he was born in Canada.)
Hopefully this makes sense, I typed it on my phone

Do you really think that a single payer system would ever be voted on in any US Legislature? The Republicans just put a gun to the head of the country over the very moderate ACA. They would probably turn to actual terrorism before allowing a single payer system to be implemented.
