"Trump has been a vocal opponent of the Affordable Care Act, but his general stance on health care is much murkier."
"During his short-lived flirtation with a 2000 Reform Party presidential bid, Trump supported universal health care without ambiguity, and he voiced support for a single-payer system in several instances.
"If you can't take care of your sick in the country, forget it, it's all over. ... I believe in universal healthcare," Trump told CNN's Larry King in October 1999.
"I would put forth a comprehensive health care program and fund it with an increase in corporate taxes, " Trump told The Advocate right before he dropped out of the race in February 2000.
"The Canadian plan also helps Canadians live longer and healthier than America. . We need, as a nation, to reexamine the single-payer plan, as many individual states are doing," Trump writes in his 2000 book The America We Deserve.
Trump has said very little about single-payer health care since 2000, according to our search of the LexisNexis database."
This also included his praise for the Scottish system.
"In previous comments Trump said he backed a single-payer, universal healthcare system paid for by the government.
Trump cited the healthcare systems of Canada and Britain as models for the U.S. Conservatives have noted that both systems are socialized medical programs that limit and ration care, especially for the elderly."

Have renewed faith someone would spend time to review posts and reply with links to articles supporting their position.
Comments on the first part (red text) of post.
SOME of the referenced information was quoted in 2000 and difficult to review quickly and less relevant than what Trump has said in the last few years. However it's still important.
Definition:
Single-payer healthcare is a system in which the state, rather than private insurers, pays for all healthcare costs.
"Single Payer" could have been Trumps position in the past (Aug 6, 2015) and most damming was TRUMPS approval of the Canadian System (and Scottish).in the August 25th Debate, "murky" was used and is a good analogy to what he's said.
We all should know Canadas system is OK for routine office visits and care but "sucks big time" if there is need of an operation or specialized care BEFORE YOU DIE !!! The richer Canadians go to the U.S. and India for required care.
To avoid reading the entire debate (link below), Use ctrl F to bring up the "find" window. Enter Trump and hit return. There are 78 refererences found. Then use the "down" arrow key on the window to go to #25 and read the paragraphs below that point in the text.
This is a also a good way to find out if: xxxxx said xxxx, go to the text of the debate or ??? or webpage in general, enter in a portion or a few words and SEE the context or if it even exists.

LATEST clarification on Trumps position. Probably best to use his WRITTEN, latest,, greatest, undeniable, unedited, uncommented, clear position on health care.

Seems I'm in the same boat, Didn't know Cruz was an Attorney until today.
What is said about Attorneys (apology to attorneys),,
99% of the attorney make the rest look bad.
Explains this article about his 2013 stance on immigration:
Quote: It's a good story, and the immigration fight tells us a lot about Cruz. But the fight didn't happen the way he says it did. Cruz didn't marshal the opposition or even take a firm stand. He's a lawyer, not a leader. He chose his words exquisitely so that down the road-say, in a future campaign for president-he could position himself on either side of the immigration debate. And he delivered, with angelic piety, speeches that he now claims were lies.
Doubt he ever considered there would be someone in the future who would constantly call him a ****.

It's hard to pin down what Trump believes. He changes his story depending upon who he's talking to and what he wants from them.

no one's mind is going to change in the forums.
I am tired of providing links to "FACTS and getting responses that parrot Trump and his handbook.
RULE 2: "Never go outside the expertise of your people."
RULE 5: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon."
RULE 6: "A good tactic is one your people enjoy."
RULE 10: "If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive."
RULE 11: "The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative."
RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it."
Look it up.
Trump couldn't give the role of Government. His answers were close to the Democrat positions.
Giuliani just endorsed Trump. Let me see if I got this straight. Trump is a bigot but Carson and Herman Cain are both endorsing him so they are bigots also Right? Nobody will vote for him but he's 200 points ahead of everybody else. Right? Trump is against the 2nd amendment but he is a life member of the NRA and so are his sons and they all have CC permits for NY the hardest place to get one. Right? Trump is stupid but he made billion dollars in a very hostile environment for business. Right.
Now for Cruz. I like Cruz but I don't understand how he will abolish the IRS when the president can not make a law of repeal one and every member of the senate on both dislikes or hates him. somebody please explain this to me. By the way, has he ever gotten anything through the Senate?

Straw man maybe but a very good and logical one. The statement about a straw man argument does not answer the question about how Cruz will abolish the IRS. It is only a diversion because you cannot explain or come up with the answer. It does not explain any of the other things I stated either. Those straw man questions kind of shot down all your detrimental statement about Trump HUH? Trump has plenty of faults but so does Cruz. Cruz is saying things he knows he can't do. I also caught Trump in a lie yesterday. Nobody is an angel in this rat race.
The way I see it, it's a matter of who the people think can get the most done to help the middle class. Trump is the only one who can't be bought. Cruz is OK. Hillary is a disaster in progress. Bernie is a Joke but a serious one. Anybody who even knows what socialism is knows it doesn't ever work. Socialism is an impossible system sold by evil people and bought by the ignorant. Socialism is guaranteed poverty.

Apparently Mr. Perfect, you can't answer the question of how Cruz is going to abolish the IRS. But you are pretty good at insulting comments and disparaging remarks. All this proves that you are not interested in having a conversation for constructive purposes. He just can't bring himself to say he doesn't know.
Just try and insult me again. Everybody will understand.
PS- This is beginning to bore me. I have to go give my dog algebra lessons.

Maybe you care to explain why you keep bringing that issue up ad nauseum. So far as I can tell, you're the only one who cares one iota about the non-issue.

Americans spend far too much time, energy, and resources answering to the agency whose harmful conduct extends far beyond collecting large portions of the people's hard-earned dollars-top IRS officials have targeted individuals based on their political and religious views and threatened their First Amendment rights. The IRS has become a partisan arm of the Obama Administration and an avenue for the Washington Cartel to further benefit its members, to the detriment of working Americans.
Essential to abolishing the IRS is wiping clean the cob-webbed tax code and starting over with the Cruz Simple Flat Tax, which sets one low rate of 10 percent for all individuals and enables them to fill out their taxes on a postcard or smartphone app. The Simple Flat Tax also taxes all businesses at the same, fair Business Flat Tax of 16 percent, removing the loopholes and backhanded funding of big businesses and special interests. The Simple Flat Tax fundamentally changes the tax code and abolishes the IRS as we know it. The remaining personnel needed can be housed in a drastically smaller division of the Department of Treasury.
Along the same line I was wondering how Trump would apply his 35%~45% tariffs? And how would this benefit seniors and those on fixed income?
As for the wall (in which I am in favor of) do we wait for funding from Mexico to start or does the taxpayer fund it with a hope of reimbursement in the future?
