Question for CNN Youtube Rep. Debate: Universal Healthcare 1

Single-payer universal healthcare a complex issue, and you need a question that addresses the nuances of the usual republican response to this question. If not, we just get the same answers over and over again that just don't check with the facts.

"How can you defend private insurance companies as a solution for our healthcare if their incentive is to deny coverage to maximize profits? Wouldn't it be irrelevant how low prices may drop, since premise of the business itself is flawed? How can you say that our govt. is too inefficient to implement a single-payer universal coverage when we are the only nation among the top industrialized countries without it -- why can their govts do it and ours cannot? The #1 healthcare system in the world is socialized. Finally, would state run universal healthcare be a good solution?"
