Reply #52: That's Different

John Edwards has not proposed single payer, he has proposed universal.

There's a difference between universal health care which would work with the existing insurance companies and single payer system which would shut them down.

Which is better?

I am for universal healthcare because I think it is a crime that any child is without health insurance. I think it is wrong that any adult, especially one working full time, is without health insurance.

I don't know if we should scrap our existing system of private employer sponsored healthcare and move to single payer or simply enhance it so every one is covered and the insurance companies aren't playing their BS games.
