The big deal is he waited more than 2 hours to make any attempt to stop the violence. That is a HUGE problem. He had many many people asking him to make a statement and he refused...until over 2 hours into the violence. You think that's reasonable? Most people you ask would likely say no. His Son, His Daughter, his chief of staff, people from Fox News...Everybody reaching out to him to "Please make a statement to stop this...I am at a loss for words how you have no problem with him waiting 2 hours after the violence started, while he was watching it in the oval office, to finally ask them to go home. 

2+ hours later is useless...the damage was done

So, on to healthcare

You are missing the boat on single-payer healthcare system ... In a big way

If you look at what single-payer healthcare systems pay for prescription drugs and medical devices, they have huge negotiating power because of the volume. It's already been proven that the drug and device costs of single-payer systems are sometimes 4 to 5 times less than the splintered US System.

I don't want to repeat that again, but that completely contradicts your notion about it actually being more. There's nothing further from the truth than what you said

Single-Payer Systems Likely to Save Money in US, Analysis Finds | UC San Francisco (ucsf.edu)

Projected costs of single-payer healthcare financing in the United States: A systematic review of economic analyses (nih.gov) - This assessed multiple studies performed of how a single-payer system would affect costs... but, more than that, the proof is in the pudding. Every single country that is a single-payer system has dramatically lower drug costs and overall healthcare costs than the US. Please point to any single payer system where they pay more for drugs... You won';t find it

Study after study after study confirms that a single-payer system will save dramatically in drug costs (and other costs such as administration)
