US healthcare ranks last

Attention, Barack: If you do health care reform, and the health-insurance companies are still in business afterwards, that is how you know you did not do it right.
 
The constitutional authors knew the progress of weapons from swords to guns. They probably knew there would be many more advances in military technology when they wrote the 2nd Amendment. I doubt they expected a steep decline in fitness, when most Americans would be too unfit to defend the nation.
That has nothing to do with this. Affordable health care will not make everyone fit for military service and there is no reason why it should -- the Armed Forces have enough physically fit recruits, and there is no future in a militia-based defense system. It will only make medical treatment more accessible to everybody,

This bears repeating. Bernie Sanders' Medicare for All bill is expressly designed to put them out of business.

Michael Moore was right: When discussing health care reform, the health insurance companies are the enemy and should not have a place at the table.
 
Seniors struggle to pay what Medicare doesn’t cover, because our healthcare system is designed to separate Americans from every dollar they have.

A growing number of retirees, like Morton, are grappling with healthcare debt due to medical bills. Medicare, which provides health insurance coverage to more than 66 million people, covers the lion’s share of the cost of medical care, but not all.

On average, a 65-year-old who left the workforce last year may need $165,000 in savings to cover out-of-pocket healthcare expenses throughout retirement.

“I'm at a point now where I can't keep my house because the bills are much too high,” Morton said. “I'm trying to decide what I'm going to do.”

‘Murica!
 
Everything in the US medical industry is designed to work against the interests of patients. Exploitation is the goal, not healthcare.
