The Iran war may cost upwards of 1.3 trillion dollars - if you count the reparations - for the demented megalomaniac's little "excursion". Seems we have plenty of money for those things though.
The US could easily afford single payer. It might even save the government money because the current situation isn't very cheap either with multiple different government options that all require eligibility checks, etc. The issue is how many people profit from the current situation. Insurance, hospitals... Hell, do you think doctors want a pay cut?
