I managed to crash my bike in to a car in Italy; I remember the process of going to a doctor (which happened to be the closest door on the sidewalk where I hobbled over to) and having them send me to a hospital. I got looked at, xrayed, and given a diagnosis without having to even talk about money or anything beyond a 4-line form for my information.

Single-payer is wonderful, and I believe an absolute necessity as we march towards a future of automation and enormous economic inequality.
