I cannot understand why the USA is the only country in the Anglosphere that does not have Universal Health Care

If the Health System was removed from legislation in Canada, UK, Australia etc...a Revolution would take place. I'm not a fan of Michael Moore but somebody has to critique the system

Priority's are backwards, War in Iraq and Afghanistan is conservatively estimated at $2.7 Trillion by 2017 according to the Congressional Budget Office. That amount of money could of gone to Health Care.

@MPreaper94 Wow, you arrogant fool. It's not like its Obamas fault that America is in REAL deep shit right now. Thats the work from the past years, but Obama had bad luck to selected and try to solve this mess. Im Swedish, and we have universal health care, and lets see. Wich country is in the deepest shit right now? Well, its not Sweden.

If all just could agreed on higher taxes you would have a more functional and human society. Is it that horrible to help another in need?

@NorseCreation

serious, I have been working since I was 16 and have only had healthcare benefits for at most 3 years; 2 of those years I had co-payments of $20.00; thats ridiculous and its easy for the well off to criticize the bill cuz they don't care cuz they are taken care of already; the rich don't care about the middle class nor the poor; this nation is starting to look like communism, where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer; I give Obama his props for working on a flawed system

@gschneider37

unfortunately this nation is full of morons like the fellow you are speaking of; they are brainwashed as children to think they are superior to everyone; including minorities in this country especially black and hispanics and just about any other nationality that is not American; they don't care and are tolerated in this society; very hateful indeed, btw how is your healthcare?

@wakeup32068

so if thats the case, whats wrong with universal healthcare? if the UK, Canada and France can do it, why can't we?
