Our current system is seriously inefficient. Look at how much we spend compared to similar industrialized countries that have single-payer systems. These numbers include the ~13% of the population that didn't have health insurance at the time this chart was created. So we currently pay roughly twice as much to cover 87% of our population. If we had a system similar to Germany we could do it with $600/capita/year in private money added. I would gladly split an additional $50/month in healthcare costs with my employer.
