We disagree. It's fine. I prefer a universal single payer system so that nobody sick needs to worry about money when they get sick.

Given the backdrop of Singapore having high iincome inequality and rising healthcare cost such a system would help mitigate some of these problems which are worsening.

Of course some will prefer the current system they are well covered within it ...that is also fine.

Eventually,  it will come down to the vote at elections. How different people are affected in different ways by a system will drive their decisions.

Why would I not want a 'single payer system' like what you advocate? Of course I want but it cannot be a 'want' without a proposal of where the money is going to come from? If we merely just demand without proposal then we'll always be the senseless opposition that PAP so like to denounce at every opportunity.

Therefore my proposal is:
1. Cut defence budget.
2. Cut any unnecessary expenses such as mayors' pay.
3. Keep the cost of healthcare affordable but keeping tight checks on doctors' charges. This to me is most important because I know of many doctors always urging patients to go for unnecessary treatments. Define cost of each treatment and set an upper limit.
4. Give elderly above the age of 70 more subsidy, not just for the pioneer generation but for all future generations.
