If you see I simply responded to a single post that had nothing to do with opining what was wrong with care in the US but since you like to hijack things I'll respond to you because I perceive you actually have a question somewhere in your quip

First of all I take issue with your statement that there is a huge majority in this country that can't afford to get sick. That's simply not true

There are citizens that use there freedom to choose that healthcare is not a major priority and do not arm themselves against huge medical bills with adequate insurance

Part of this problem today is the democrats fault. Low cost, high deductible health insurance is not available today thanks to Obamacare. These plans had high deductibles and max out of pockets and were a relatively reasonable deal. Bring back that market

For the working poor in this country there is Medicaid. Trust me I see these people everyday. Medicaid is alive and well in this country. These people quite honestly pay nothing for their care and trust me they get their care

Now that doesn't mean we don't have problems in the US with healthcare. We do. Obamacare didn't solve anything it made it worse IMO. I think it was meant to make it worse to be a harbinger of single payer like Socialist Bernie Sanders advocates.

There a better alternatives to Obamacare and the republicans actually put ideas on the table prior to Obamacare but Obama and the dems took the table away.

Repeal Obamacare. Replace it with insurance market with little regulation and allow the consumer to decide what they want to purchase. Allow this insurance market to freely operate across state lines to have robust competition. Tort reform is huge and not primarily at physician malpractice (although that is an issue), but lawsuits against drug companies and medical device companies that siphon huge dollars and require prices to be high.

Make it less costly and onerous for pharmaceuticals to come to market so drug companies don't have huge R&D costs to recoup (go study US regulations on what it takes to get FDA approval for a drug in this country and you'll see why drugs,before they go generic, cost so much)

So yes we have issues. Issues that can and should be resolved with market based solutions not government overreach. For all the budding socialists in this country that think the government is the solution go do some research. Actually go sit in a VA for a week and see how that works, go ask physicians and hospitals what they think of Medicare and Medicaid and if you conclude after that due diligence that the government is the answer then we will have to agree to disagree that the government is the answer. To this physician the government is more a problem than the answer
