assuming it is broken, and making it feasible, since hey, its feasible all over the world just not here for ...reasons, that would be worth listening to, and trusting, but shilling for the status quo is always the concern. Sure, its not necessarily or always the case, but there is just too damn much incestuousness when it comes to this whole field. Of course its worth addressing concerns broached by credible studies, and shouting them down(whoever is doing that according to you) versus dismantling their shortcomings and/or their misleading statistics or else accepting them on their merits because they hold water, is certainly not a reasonable approach to potentially factual information .
Really though, since its the page you are on, what is it about America that makes the situation sooo different, not in terms of politics, but in terms of implementability of universal health care? Yes, it would disrupt markets. That has never stopped industries from hulking other markets. There are no breaks applied to Uber or smart phones or Amazon.
