I would be willing to compromise with something like that.
But ultimately there is no competition with Single Payer. The payment is not determined by the free market, which is itself not allowed to fleece people in need to medical care.
Health care workers are ultimately working for the people they are providing care to. And the people's representatives should be the ones to determine the amount, based on the demand for those workers, and the available supply. And the government has every right to fortify the supply with newly trained workers from government schools who would be motivated to perform positive work for a worthy salary. I understand this would be a radical change from what we have now, so I am willing to compromise for the time being with a Single Payer system.
I just don't hear that word 'compromise' coming from any Republicans.
