Single payer means something different to everyone. The way I define it is that health care is a right and not a privilege.

Where health care has failed is in designing a cost containment mechanism that works.

You've got to remember, Vermont is a lot of beautiful mountains with valleys and small brooks that run into bigger rivers.

I suspect I'm the only politician in America who won an election in this last cycle with TV ads saying I was going to try to pass the first single-payer system in America.
