How many straw men can you count?
I think we need to put a dozen experts from each side in a house for a month. They can have internet access, whatever materials they need. Heck, they can even phone a friend or poll the country, but they need to rebut each other in a factually based manner until they come to some understanding. Pretty good reality show, huh?
I frankly think it will all boil down to Lakoff's model of conservative/liberal:authoritarian/nurturant world views. If you think the rich deserve to be rich and the poor deserve to be poor, you will never "accept the premise" of single payer healthcare.
Cheers.
