    Ask Greece, Spain, Portugal, France and others how it's working. Closer to home ask Detroit, Chicago, Illinois, San Bernadino etc., etc

    Or we could look at Denmark, Sweeden, Finland, Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, and Norway.

    are you going to sit there and tell me that these countries are better than us? That they can succeed at something we can't?

    The problem with healthcare in America is the profit motive. It pays to keep us all sick.

    We are different...much larger less homogenous with a very different tradition of social development.
    The problem with healthcare in the U.S. Is not profit motive but crony capitalism and the lack of true competition. Big healthcare is arm in arm with the government preventing a true market from forming and prices artificially high. Open up the whole market to competition and costs will go down and be more affordable to all.

    I, for one, do not.

    FedGov should have stayed the f outta healthcare, among other things.

    Yes, for the luxury of knowing that if I get sick my life won't be ruined, I won't have to sell my house, or get booted, take another job, you're damn right.
