- Gregory Scott Turner. Issue Position: Health Care. "We have to continue to the move towards universal, single payer healthcare and there are two major reasons why we need to. It's the morally right thing to do and we have to reduce health care costs to compete with other nations in the global economy. [?] We already have single payer systems in this country. Medicare is the like the Canadian health care system. The military and veterans health care system is like the British healthcare system. No industrialized nation has a "for profit" health care system like the United States. [?] Universal, single payer healthcare is the only way to reduce health care costs in America." (votesmart.org)
