The time has come to reform our health care system in the United States. We have been reading about the UPMC/Highmark squabbles over the health care riches available to the strongest insurance provider in our area.

When will it be time to settle this squabble by providing a single-payer, government-run (nonprofit) system that provides health care at one-half the cost like all the other countries in the world?

We don't remember reading much about power struggles for providing health care in other countries. This is a complex issue, but so was World War II. It is time for our elected officials to do some meaningful work for us.
