[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 2876023, member: 7629"] first look at cornell link, video didn't show up so I mistakenly thought page required you to purchase book before knowing what his ideas was. so I spent time listening to the professor's lecture. conclusion as he is basically full of crap .. could only bear to watch the first 10 minutes or so long enough for him to lay out his 10 points. NO where did cost containment or why the existing laws bars competition resulting in huge price increases. In fairness the professor's book/talking points are dated 2010, with most of the work dating a few years before that. So back in 2008 era when data for the Cornell professor's book was put together .. runaway costs was already on the way but had not reached the crisis that it is today. since you put link to video up, I'm assuming you watched the entire 30 minutes and can tell me what I missed. here's a counterpoint by yet another professor from 2012 –Classic Interview: Gerald Friedman, Professor of Economics at the University of Massachusetts, joins us to outline his recent outline of exactly how single payer healthcare would be both affordable and efficient economically. Professor Friedman claims tax increases for single payer would more than offset by stopping existing insurance premiums and actually save $$. [MEDIA=youtube]Uoomnj6ABmo[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
