Would that be a majority of whom? People that have nothing and don't care what they get as long as it s given to them or a majority of those who have worked hard and earned all that they have?

The last thing I want is another bloated inefficient Gov't program with someone else other than me and my doctors having any more say in the care, treatment and/or health decisions of me and my family.

What makes you think anyone other than your doctor would make those decisions? With insurance companies, pencil pushers make decisions about your health. They deny coverage. With Medicare they don't.

And sorry, but there are plenty of wealthy people who would like a single payer system as well. Or who don't mind paying more so that everyone is covered.
