Default Single-payer health insurance

We already have a low-cost, single-payer system health insurance system. It is about health insurance, individuals have freedom of choice in selecting providers, administrative costs average 4% vs. 14% for private insurance carriers -- it's called Medicare!
Let's simply expand coverage to people under 65, DUH!
There are no waiting lines in Canada (I have spoken with Canadian consumers and not listened to the crapola from the lobbyists and their radio acolytes). Canadians love the system, the freedom of choice and the low insurance rates.
What are we waiting for?
