There are too many people on the right who deem a government run health
care system to be communist and downright un-American. There area number
of western democracies that have wonderful health care systems that
treat everyone and spend less on health care than Americans. The
lobbyist for the for profit health care business have all sorts of
stories about wait times, and how others have to travel to the US for
treatment. They don't tell you about the Americans travelling for
medical procedures.
