Why does everyone always cite the USA, the anomaly in Health Care?
To the best of my knowledge no country has been stupid enough to set up a system modelled on our wonderful (sic) NHS.
Most countries have universal health insurance which seems to work perfectly well.
Just look at our performance on international comparisons. Next to last on 'Health Care Outcomes' i.e. actually making you 'better', second to last on Mortality Amenable to Health Care i.e. stopping you dying. Pathetic.
