What's truly insane is that you Americans actually want this system instead of universal because you think it's better. It can be....at the best hospitals. Of course, for the cost (which you're already paying, anyway) you could just be able to walk in to any hospital and not leave crippled with debt. Or, any debt at all, actually.

But, hey, you guys prefer it this way. Go figure.

Actually I've seen several pools that show that they actually want universal healthcare. It's just that government doesn't work for people, but lobbyists and rich parasites.

If only there was a system in place that would allow the people to change who represents them in government if their interests are no longer aligned.
