The line item on my pay stub that reads "Medicare" is in itself quasi-socialist. Read about Medicare being a single payer system and you will see it is referred to as a social program, as a redistribution. So for your satisfaction we can call it quasi-socialism.

I don't care if it is partisan or not. Left, right is moot to me. I will not argue the subjective opinion which system is better, or parrot some farce international statistics about quality because it leads us into circles. The debate should be about the bottom line, about fairness.

I believe a system that allows each individual to pay for their own medical is essential for fairness. The end result in our current system is that I pay for others. In a single payer system, I pay for others.
