### Comment:
Well I've personally been in awe that Americans widely have continued to put up with the system we have. This whole high deductible thing going on now is a real kick in the teeth as well.  
  
 The thing is health care does still suck in an awful lot of ways in other western nations, so even if we get single payer it's not going to be nearly as good as people think. Financially it absolutely will be, no more of all that crap, but there are sacrifices.

### REPLY:
Because Americans are lied too. 
  
 People are convinced public health care would lead to 
  
 A. Massive tax increases beyond what current insurance costs. 
  
 Or  
  
 B. God awful healthcare with long wait times.

### END.
