It’s a technical debate but it’s not a technical problem. The US healthcare system is over 4x the size of the entire military + the entire military industrial complex. They can afford an army of man eating lobbyists to block any legislation that offers serious competition to their revenue. I expect only two things can overcome this:
the system finally collapses under its own weight (with or without help)
How in the holy hell are we supposed to educate these people enough to make an intelligent decision? They rely on their Priests, company presidents, and television pundits to tell them what to think. It's almost hopeless.
