“Single Payer Won’t Save Us” looks at all the evidence about single payer healthcare systems including those here in the U.S. as well as in other countries. Single payer, universal health care, government healthcare, and the “public option” are all the same: the government is in charge of, in control of, and is responsible for your health care. Objective analysis leads to the conclusion that single payer will not work for Americans.
