Not everything but a significant portion including higher costs of Drug R&D, Malpractice insurance, govt. regulations preventing competition or insurance companies crossing state lines but let's not overlook personal behavior and why we reward bad behavior with more money thrown at the problem. Obamacare is the first step to single payer and single payer in a country of 312 million people with diverse population, different state cost of living, different state personal behavior doesn't solve the problem at all, just hides it in another govt. entitlement program that gives politicians more power. Medicare and SS are single payer and are trillions in unfunded liabilities. Creating a single payer system doesn't do anything but give the politicians more money to spend
Instead of answering my question, you just regurgitated GOP catchphrases. "Unfunded liability" is my favorite. Giant red flag that the person in question has no idea what they're talking about.
