I think so, but how.  I say we use the existing system and begin with small portions of corporate plans being subsidized by the Government.  1/2 Paid via insurance, the other 1/2 paid by government funded healthcare.  When we opt to use this method, request that the payroll tax be deducted another % from our income.  Likewise make it incremental according to income 1% payroll deduction for under 40% tax bracket all the way up to 7% for those making 250,00 + a year.

Another thought is increasing sin taxes on the very causes of many diseases such as alcohol and cigarettes, a flat federal taxation, say 10% on all Alcohol and Tobacco instead of(for instance) 8.25% in the current state I reside in... TX.

Make corporate donation a tax write off into this government healthcare fund....lol, this is the first and only time you would ever see a bunch of Republicans running to give the government their money.
