I doubt that your blanket statement is really valid. For example, off the top of my head, Japan is a single payer socialized healthcare country, and they are shitlords to the extreme.

If you’re going to do it, you just gotta do it right. If you can’t trust yourself or the people you elected to do it, then find/elect someone who will.

Simply saying that it doesn’t work is a cop-out.

Exactly! Japan has implemented single-payer socialized healthcare perfectly. They have strict measurements that people must meet to be considered healthy and there are consequences of being overweight.
