> Sure but don't fall for the false promises socialism makes. What a pithy comment. I guess that ends the debate before it even starts. Except that every other Western nation has socialized medicine, and most of their citizens are happy with it. I hope your grocery cashier doesn't have corona virus this week, because they aren't checking into a US hospital. Don't fall for the false promises capitalism makes. We have tens of millions of Americans who can't afford the ambulance ride to the hospital, let alone the stay there for even one day. And we probably spend as much on administrative and billing overhead for health care as other countries spend on services. Think about that.

Americans have no clue that their issue isn't socialized healthcare, it's fixing your corrupt insurances practices making doctors charge so much. Remove that, and the prices will come down and you'll have best of both worlds instead of this nonsense that Europe has the right idea. Try getting an actual doctors appointment in Sweden and then compare that to the bill you're actually have paid. Don't think it's free, and don't think you're being served what you actually paid for. Other countries do capitalism in healthcare without any of the American issues and it has always worked better than the dream Bernie is selling you and Europeans peddle. Obviously most people don't know better and alternatives, but Europeans get high and mighty out of their nonsense to rub it in Americans even though it's shit, or at least my experience of it. The only country with the right idea and doesn't actually suck in Europe is Switzerland. Germany, Scandinavian countries, the UK is all a joke in comparison.
