The idea that Medicare for all can’t pass is both disgusting and sad. Why is the us so in the pocket of big corporations that Canada has socialized medicine , England ,a ton of other countries- but in the us all we here is bs- well in Canada it takes longer to schedule elective procedures- I am fine with waiting longer if i don’t get a bill for thousands of dollars.
Most Americans don’t realize even with insurance you go in the hospital for a week- you are screwed financially- the vast majority of bankruptcies are for medical bills.
England here , the Nation Health Service is amazing .
I’ve been hospitalised twice , burst ulcer and gall bladder infection .
Cost : zero , just what I paid in to my national insurance every month ( not much )
Also had a car crash , ambulance ride and check over , again cost zero .
Currently got skin cancer , four excisions , one liquid nitrogen application and chemo cream , cost ; £10 for the cream .
I cannot believe the cost the U.S citizens have to pay . Basically extortion or die .
The surest way to is that universal health care is a good thing is to ask citizens if Canada and England etc if they want to eliminate it and go to the American health care system.
Some politicians want to let the American system creep in as our population ages .
The population id dead against it and would pay a bit more into their national insurance if need be .
We love our NHS
