Gore calls for single-payer healthcare
- Powerofmene 9y agoIt seems the ACA was a step in that direction. Now the people of the US are accustomed to being forced to have insurance and soon they can be moved to a single payer system without a great dal of backlash. The only existing viable system for such a system would be Medicare but clearly given the $60 Billion a year in fraud from Medicare and $140 Billion a year of fraud in Medicaid must be dealt with. After all, the entire payout from Social Security on disability payments is $140 Billion annually so the fraudulent payments could pay 100% of the SSDI payments annually.
