Why do you think healthcare is in such a terrible state?
The U.S. and Canadian unions in the early 20th century are a great comparison. In Canada, they pushed the government to provide healthcare. In the U.S., they pushed the corporations to provide it.
Fast forward 80 years, and as unions are being depowered, the healthcare options get worse for U.S. employees because they're not guaranteed by law.
