Here’s an excerpt from the Americans for Tax Reform [blog](http://friendsofatr.blogspot.com/2007/08/thinking-outside-box-anti-universal.html):

> Many debates in health care over the last decade (or five) have focused on the best way to universally insure all Americans.
> 
> 
> The Left believes in a single-payer health care system where all Americans are covered by a single government health care plan.
> 
> 
> The Center-Left believes in some combination of socialized medicine and heavily government-subsidized private sector health care.
> 
> 
> The broad Center-Right coalition believes in individual choice and control, in particular via use of health savings accounts (HSAs).
> 
> 
> But maybe we’re getting the question wrong.
