Why can every other first world country have healthcare for all?

Because every other country envies America

Because they’re all small and homogenous?

Healthcare is not a right.

Also: America has the finest quality healthcare on planet Earth. Fact.

There’s a reason very sick patients travel to the US from those countries for life saving care.

The entirety of the first world is small and homogeneous?

This is actually where I disagree with most conservatives.

I don't necessarily have a problem with figuring out a better health care system. I believe that the Constitution only gave the federal government a handful of responsibilities and one of them was to provide for the general welfare of the public. In my opinion that can be read as medical care.

Most likely everyone will disagree with that, and that's fine.

However, I also believe we should just start going down the list of federal agencies and we should disband damn near every one of them. Nearly every other "social program" we have is illegitimate.

Who's stopping you from leaving?

We vehemently disagree. I do not have a right to your labor. You have no right to mine.

I'm just saying, if you feel your health is unduly at risk or too expensive, there are places to accommodate you. Find one.

If I were in your shoes, that we be my approach instead of jousting at windmills.
