Healthcare Funding Models, Single Payer and Institutional Corruption

White argues that while a single-payer healthcare system is likely inevitable in the US, it will not necessarily improve options due to institutional corruption at the CDC and FDA. He proposes a decentralized funding model, similar to a modified Canadian system, where funding is managed at the state level. This approach is intended to make it harder for private pharmaceutical companies to bribe the entire system.
