There are no facts that socialized medicine would be better for the US either. And many of the things you mention are factually correct statements on for example, M4A. When you say "convince" you actually show militancy, not understanding. I get it though, the topic is very complex and people lean very differently. I think the best way to deal with this political will is to do a public option. More choices to the people: if public truly is better, then it will promptly show it in the open market. If its not, then we know socialized solutions will not work.

And that's exactly what happened, most developed countries have got variants of socialized healthcare Also, market failures happen all the time, it is never a good idea to rely on "Free Market Fanaticism" as that easily leads to catastrophe without oversight
