Same as everything else - a fair tax taken out of everyone's paycheck. You pay for healthcare anyway, so why not just cover it like all other security issues - like military spending... how do we pay for that?
Why do we need to fight insurance companies and pay for this coverage separately?
If I lose 30% from each paycheck, instead of 25% plus a health insurance payment, I would prefer the simplicity of the slightly higher tax - you pay either way.
This would actually be more fair for everyone, as everyone would pay into the pool, like for basic education, and for roadwork, and everything else you guys claim to hate, gets paid for now.
If you are rich, and you want better coverage, I am certain you will be allowed to pay more for it, as the wealthy will always get better services. Doesn't mean the have-nots should be screwed over.
