Not saying what we have is great by any means, but I can't imagine govt subsidized health care for all being a good thing here.
Let’s see if any other countries go to our type of system
We’re more likely to go to theirs

I worked in health care planning at the VA for over a decade as a Geographer. You can't compare our system to the European countries that offer universal healthcare for a multitude of reasons but the biggest reasons are our population, amount of immigration both legal and illegal and most importantly our size and rurality as compared to our European counterparts. If we tried to implement universal healthcare you'd be asking rural and highly rural communities to pay into a system they do not have access to.

Britain used to provide all kinds of benefits. Death, birth, birthday...
The NHS is a relic from those days, it too will have an end

Only because we have an abundance of willfully ignorant marxist democrats in this country.

The allure of free shite is like a magnetic pull. But our system is far better than theirs. My daughter lives there, and I know what kind of care her family gets and the wait times. It sucks. But they think it’s free. Of course, it’s not.
The UK system is better for the bums. The US system is better for the working people. The US system would be much improved if they would make employer provided health insurance taxable. This would cause people to refuse it and to buy their own. Many choices would emerge, and folks would have health insurance tailored to what they need.
The only part of the US system of health care that runs great is the part which includes non covered elective surgeries. Breast implants, lasik surgery, facelifts, tummy tucks, aol of these are becoming cheaper and better and all of the mandated insurance covered stuff is becoming more and more expensive.

Not because it works better, but because pos freeloaders will always vote for free shite.
