I do know people in Canada who have to wait days to be seen for certain things or who pay for supplemental healthcare plans to fill in the gaps. That doesn’t mean they’d rather be in our system, which seems to get more broken every day.

>"That Canada hates their system and you have to wait for days to get seen."

I would not call that I hate the whole Canadian system, but parts of it for sure. Especially the ones when they let you wait for months for some things. Some people died because of it. All because the guvvamint only allows for so many procedures per period allowed. The rest does not fit into budget.

However you will find enough of deaths in the US that can be attributed to a lack of money as well.

Depending on how one gets sick the may hate Canadian system or the one in the US.

What disinformation campaign? Elizabeth Warren’s proposed healthcare plan would cost $52 trillion over 10 years, with $20 trillion in new federal spending: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/11/01/elizabeth-warren-releases-pl.... Warren estimates that $52 trillion is about what Americans would spend on healthcare over that time frame anyway.

When the candidate “with a plan” estimates that single payer wouldn’t reduce costs, does it take a “massive disinformation campaign” to convince people that, by the time all is said and done, costs would go up significantly?

Just buy insurance if you are worried about it.

Even those who have insurance end up paying a lot out of pocket and if the insurance provider decides to not pay the bill it gets chucked onto you and that can easily run in the 100000's of dollars.
