I think everyone is entitled to free health care, whoever and wherever they are. I think its sickening that you have to pay for health care over there to be honest. "I'm sorry Mrs Jones, but your son passed away on the operating table... that'll be $5000 please".
If your fortunate to be able to afford private insurance, great... good for you. But what about the poor sod and his family who has no job, lost there home and now one of them is suffering from a serious illness... you think its right for them to simply be left to suffer whilst the fortunate few get great care...
Its wrong... no matter how you morally try to justify it.
I think it would be an amazing achievement for the USA to create something resembling the NHS over here in the UK (just preferably one that works and is funded properly). The US has the money and the capability to make this work... and work very well... I will follow this with interest.
