People, even Republicans, love Medicare. It's a winner politically. It can be implemented by simply financing it via a Federal sales tax. It will be good for US competitiveness. Corporations will love it. A huge burden will be lifted from them -- they only need to pay for filling in Medicare holes, if they wish. Republicans will like it because of the financing via a sales tax. The only losers will be insurance companies. I don't think their power is that great.
