and that could be a reality if we had a unified broad based funding mechanism; a federal VAT or national sales tax. But that probably won't happen as long as powerful interest groups get health care at little or no cost to themselves, where's the incentive to change a system with the result that lavishes a benefit on specific groups while punishing others with the cost of funding. You can discuss the merit of a one provider system, but until the funding side is changed the health care system will always be a failure.
