That sounds so much better to me than the shit we have here. I always get so frustrated to hear people argue against it when the US is like the last fully developed country that doesn't have some form of single payer healthcare. Like, look around. There are plenty of examples of it working, but half the country just doesn't seem to get it.
I've had a conversation with someone on Reddit about this some years back.
They basically explained that people are being told that healthcare/social security is socialism and they're being told that socialism is just communism under a different name and therefore is bad.
Ah, so we can't have anything socialist because it's such a slippery slope to being full on commies.
As ridiculous as that sounds, that is basically the explanation they gave me.
