This is a sentence I did not imagine myself writing, but it's true! Vermont Governor Shumlin will introduce a bill (that the Vermont Congress supports) that would fully convert Vermont's health insurance to a single-payer, government-run plan by 2014. Hooray!
This is great news. There are a ton of details to work out (most importantly: who's going to pay for it, secondly: how will you get out of all of the federal insurance laws), but this is a great start.
Vermont, you've given us great ice cream and now possibly a successful healthcare system - you rock!
