We have more than enough evidence that a single-payer system is the most fiscally conservative way to cover all Americans, yet Congress has refused to consider it seriously. People are dying from lack of access, businesses are failing while trying to pay for benefits for their employees and the U.S. economy is straining due to rising costs consuming an increasing share of the budget. The majority of physicians want single payer and the majority of Americans want single payer. With all of that going for it, why won't you consider single payer as an option for reform?
