I understand that the best of them are more like "30 to 40% off" than half the price.

And then you have to consider how much of the "discount" is from factors that wouldn't apply from implementing a system that congress would pass, or even as exact of copy of their insurance system as possible. You could even drop the "as possible" and magically make the insurance system identical (other than the fact that it serves a different and larger population) and its questionable that we would save anywhere near the whole difference.
