The other half of my previous answer was that the populations living under those systems prefer them, whatever flaws they might find. Having had experience of the system, they find it the lesser evil, anyway. I'm not aware of any polls or political movements demanding that people should be allowed to pay more money.

So, in a nutshell, you don't really have an answer to my question then, correct?

That, or you agree with me.

People who live in a cardboard box probably prefer them too, but I sure as hell don't want to live in a cardboard box, so I don't really give a flying 'foo-fah' what they prefer.  That is my point.

My response was that the people of those countries preferred the system they've got. I define that as "it works for them".

I think the question here is, preferred to what?

I prefer damn near anything edible, regardless of how disgusting I may think it is, over starving to death. That does not make me think for one second that a completely controlled government run heath system would be better than what we presently have in place.

I have spent over fifty years working in the medical industry, and it terrifies to think of our healthcare system falling under the control of the unholy trinity.
