However, my own reason for not wanting single payer health care is that it takes it out of my control. I would definitely prefer to have a diferent system than I have now. Right now I have health insurance with the company I am employed by. I haven't gotten past the deductable in three years. That means I can go to whoever I want for care. My plan does have a prefered provider netork, but outside of it they still pay a part of the cost so I have some choice even after the deductable level is met.
The diference between WalMart and single payer health care is that Target, K Mart, and other smaller department stores also exist to give us some competition. In a government single payer system, depending on who is running the govt and who is appointed to run health care, we could have bad or good, but only one choice either way.
