Looks like you didn't see my homework assignment, RMC.  I think the only way you are going to learn anything is:

1) to copy and paste whatever you consider "factual" in the NYP op-ed piece you posted, 

2) then compare it to my posts describing in Sanders' single-payer proposal, and then explain why or why not you think your perceived facts are more "factual" than the facts asserted in the sources I posted.  

3) Also cite the original sources of any statements you think are "factual" in the NYP op-ed.  

I will only respond AFTER you do your homework because I am tired of doing all of your thinking for you.
