I think the fact that it was done by a libertarian think tank, funded partially by the right-wing Koch brothers, should actually be seen as a positive, seeing as both generally oppose single-payer.

Just out of interest, and since you have a "Healthcare is a Human Right" image in your signature, what do you support instead of single-payer?

Too many Americans have and like their employer provided private insurance for single payer to gain widespread traction. From what I know, a two tier system where you can choose between public and private would be the best way to start universal healthcare. Single payer should be a goal, but it's unrealistic to think we can get there in less than 40-50 years, IMO.
