> Rich countries don’t even properly provide healthcare ONE rich country doesn’t. The rest are great.

  Even countries with public healthcare struggle to provide it at a good level of quality. For instance in the UK where I'm from getting medical attention for anything less than a heart attack is difficult to impossible. Family members have suffered as a direct result of the poor quality care we have.

    The NHS is much better for most people than what the US has, but I don’t think a person on earth would suggest using it as a model to build great universal healthcare.

      Is it? From what I hear US healthcare is good, just expensive. As long as you have money you can get the help you need. Which is the same in the UK to be fair, we just end up having to pay for both public and private healthcare.
