> Single payer proponents claim on the order of 10x cost savings compared to the status quo. Who's saying that? The U.S. pays about twice as much per capita as most other developed countries for healthcare which implies that a 2x savings should be at least theoretically possible, but I don't think there are serious claims of 10x savings unless you're talking about premiums for low-income people that are heavily subsidized. > I think it's plainly obvious after SF spending $50k/homeless person that more money isn't going to help them. The only conclusion I draw from that is that the money San Francisco is spending isn't being used efficiently.
