Under a national system the vast majority of us would pay less via the tax increase than we currently pay in premiums, deductibles, and copays.

All of that being said, I don't think we should get hung up on little things like the words Moore uses to describe something. The real question is should we have universal, single payer health care, and my answer to that question is yes.
