It takes a special kind of delusion to believe that when every single country in the world that has a public health system is in fact not worse than the US system.
I think a large part of the problem is that Americans are brainwashed from birth to believe that the "Free Market" will solve all problems, and that it is superior to public systems 100% of the time.
