Vermont is one of the healthiest states in the country. It's also one of the most progressive states. The state itself is small and homogeneous being 95% white. You couldn't ask for a better environment to implement single-payer healthcare.
Everything I've read comes down to the taxes necessary to fund it were too high for the progressive residents of Vermont to accept.
If an ideal state like Vermont couldn't make it work, how will anyone make it work nationally?
