It's not necessarily cheaper

Right, single payer is "not necessarily" cheaper, but in reality, all extant examples are.

There is no kind of Washington DC organized and controlled scheme in the USA, including healthcare of any sort, which will be delivered cheaper.  Single or trillion-payer.  Although of course some people will definitely get it free.

As we now see the premiums skyrocket, just like some of us said would happen.  Which is the opposite from what the Obamanoids said and promised.  "The average family will save 2500 per year".

Evidence of INCREASED COSTS for the socialist health care plan exists.  Evidence of short term additional cost increases exist.  Increase benefits?  Let kids stay on parents plan longer?  Cover the poor?  All are increased costs that have to be spread among those who actually pay in.  6th grade math, their costs go up.

Please don't try to argue against these realities by arguing that "Oh, you just don't have the RIGHT socialist plan.  It needs to be tinkered with and these parameters adjusted - then everything will be okay".

That's insanity.  Prices are going up.  Period.  That's the reality.
