Only a handful of countries worldwide don’t have a universal heathcare system. Only one is in the “developed countries” list.
Universal healthcare is not socialism, it’s a very pragmatic policy that saves a lot of money for everyone but private insurance companies.
Public health in general is disastrous. Obesity and diabetes rates are alarmingly high. The food industry is literally killing Americans, much more than terrorists or wars, but they have free pass.
Predatory loans on students are another third-world mafia idea of an education system.
When corporate can pour money on campaigns, all we see is a legalized corruption system.

I personally know folks who went to the US with promises of better pay and very low taxes. They were debt free before going. Now they’re in debt for the rest of their life, are worried about their kids studies and their own retirement. The American dream quickly turns to a nightmare.
