You realize the candidates who support a single payer system want to expand medicare for all, right?

I know what single payer entails, and it would warp medicare out of recognition. Calling single payer "medicare" is just out of touch.

The price of medical care is there to force people to ration themselves because there's only so much supply of medical care. If you subsidize the cost of insurance the supply is going to remain the same but the demand will increase.

Medicare is the reason America spends so much on health care costs. It's extremely poorly run. Everybody on medicare should be required to complete a living will. But almost nobody on medicare has one. So medicare becomes an extremely expensive end of life hospital bill payout.
