From your answer, it's clear you don't understand at all. Doctors make the decisions about healthcare; doctors who don't enter the profession with the goal of becoming millionaires. They would make the decisions based on what is 'needed' not on what will put more money in their pockets. I lived and worked in Austria for 4 years; they have universal healthcare--I know all about universal healthcare as I participated in it. You know nothing.We understand it just fine...The State will decide who gets medical services and how much they get...IOW, rationing.Ignorant, close minded Americans do not understand the the reality of universal healthcare. I think that Medicare for all is the best solution. We already have it running and can just expand it to all. Countries with universal healthcare have better healthcare and spend less money on it than we do. We spend more money per person on health care than EU countries and have a lower life expectancy and higher infant mortality rate. We waste money on health care catering to millionaire doctors, pharmaceutical companies, and over-priced medical equipment, as well as for profit insurance companies. Close minded Americans are afraid of anything that is new (to them) and resist change, even though it is for the better.
Move your ass to Canada.
From your answer, it's clear YOU don't understand at all. Only damned fools think good intentions and leftist-approved altruism are the primary concerns in a doctor. And only damned fools think turning doctors into civil servants is a good idea.
"I have anecdotal evidence that I personally really enjoyed living like the socialist I am. You have only facts and studies from experts and your silly desire for personal responsibility, so you know nothing."
Has it occurred to you that if you think Austria, or Canada, or the UK, are superior to the United States, packing your ass up and moving to any of the above is a better solution than trying to force everyone else to accept your personal view of what's right?
