Collectively, we all would pay less, and most of us as individuals would pay less, for a good single-payer system. Heck, it works for every other civilized country on the planet, it just might work here too. Right now, I'm about two days from dropping my insurance, because my out-of-pocket costs just (almost) tripled, even after my employer subsidizes a healthy chunk of it. (And this is after us switching to a new insurance company; the old one was going to raise our rates even more.) I can't afford to be healthy, which is why I have such a vested interest in health care reform of late (and why I still think the bills on the table in Congress are such jokes - they're basically insurance company handouts).
