'Tired European Socialism'...
Any European system is much, much better than the US health care.
If you're devising a system of anything, you look at the existing arrangements and see if you can improve them - or at least match. Not many folks deliberately try to devise a worse system than the rest of the world.
Medical cost is the major cause of bankruptcy in the US and most people taking bankruptcy for medical reasons HAVE INSURANCE.
Trouble is that every Democrat is obliged to try to destroy anything that any Republican proposes and vice versa. And screw the public, because democracy or some bollocks.
Anyone with intelligence would ask those with experience how they do it, because experience equals learning from your mistakes. Sure the UK NHS isn't perfect; new procedures are expensive and the budget struggles sometimes. This is mainly because it was established during the post-war austerity without an existing fund, so people instantly had full benefits without previously paying anything. So we are constantly paying 'in arrears'.
It would be funny if it wasn't so serious, watching the politicians hurl insults at reasonable propositions just because the other side made them.
And calling anything that isn't yours 'communism' or 'socialism' because that's a game-ending insult is pathetic.
