I know this will come as a suprise to many on the right, but a single payer healthcare system like Medicare, Medicaid and TriCare are not SOCIALIZED MEDICINE. The doctors etc are not employed by the government.
It isn't a lot different than what we have now with the government already reimbursing the Humana's etc of the country for treating Medicare and Medicaid patients and retired military.
This is just another chicken little the socilized sky is falling bullshit.
If we can pay less and get care par with other real industrialized countries, why are you wetting your pants?
Hey, dumbass. Doctors and nurses and such are employed by the people paying for their services, as are all people who work in a service industry. If I am paying for their services out of my pocket, they are employed by me. If the only entity paying for those services is the government, who are they employed by?
This is not rocket magic, although it may be confusing to an unskilled, minimum-wage drone who only knows about employment by way of filling out an application and punching a time clock for Burger King.
