A single-payer national plan makes more and more sense by Register Editorial Board

"Americans should consider establishing a national health-insurance system that covers everyone."

"A single-payer, national health-insurance system would give the government more clout to control costs. It would free Americans from the fear of losing health care when they lose their jobs. It would free businesses from scrambling to find health coverage for their workers, at ever higher costs."

"The current health-care hodgepodge in this country is a failure."
