re: The stats don't measure effectiveness. The stats on what's paid do measure cost, but they don't measure "the cost the US would have with single payer", which would likely be much higher than the costs other countries with single payer face. Blah blah blah. Everybody agrees except you and your blogs. Twist and turn Tim. Nobody buys it.
