Not I. I didn't once say we need a single payer system.

You are right about free market. My earlier question stands, would this experimental treatment have been covered by any reasonable private or public insurance?
ummmm....if you are getting your healthcare benefits through a government agency you are on single payer health insurance(WHICH IS WHY THIS IS A WONDERFUL EXAMPLE)...the single payer being the tax payer...

there is a far greater chance and many more options for this child in a thriving, free market healthcare than in an overregulated, underfunded government run system(which happens to be the current state of pretty much every example that you can exhibit AND THE DIRECTION THAT OBAMACARE SEEKS TO TAKE US) ....
