A short analysis of the prognosis of the effects of socialism on a country with a focus on healthcare!
When one half of the able bodied, decide to vote themselves a paycheck from the other half of able bodied; knowing that that other half will be forced using government power, to take care of them.
The next step is that the second half of the able bodied, realize that every increase in work rewards, will be taken by the government; so they decide to stop trying.
Stagnation follows, the money leaves for better opportunity, and the country dies of the malignancy of Socialism.
But like any cancer, it can be cured with redical effort!

This growing European interest in private health insurance typically stems from dissatisfaction with the state-run systems, which often provide poor or incomplete coverage and long wait times.
So the liberals here are backing this 100%, ignoring all the problems; while looking at the World the liberal rose colored liberal glasses! Only government based programs can work when using these glasses. They MUST Ignore all facts, and echo only liberal talking points.The goal is the power to be gained by controlling 1/6th of the US Economy, and they do NOT give a damn about people or healthcare!
Rising support for socialism in the United States comes at a time when politicians like Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., promise a great many “free” services, to be provided or guaranteed by the government.
Supporters often point to nations with large social programs, such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and the Scandinavian states, particularly when it comes to health care.
NEWS FLASH: Socialized medicine is NOT a viable plan; because it does NOT work...ever
The UK did this a while ago (good job UK!) but as the money from public coffers begins to fail; parts of the EU are being forced to consider alternatives that actually work! It should be noted that one of the big reasons they wantto move back to private healthcare plans, is the statistical proven drop in life expectancy
Here is a report on the dysfunctional socialist medical system in Denmark:

This is a distillation of socialized medicine, you should read this entire article! The opportunities are especially interesting, in that these steps are exactly what you would need to rebuild a modern healthcare system, after destroying it with socialized medicine!
Overview of challenges (threats) and opportunities
Challenges
a)
demographic development (elderly, more chronically ill)
b)
life style induced illnesses in the welfare society and equity issues
c)
fiscal challenges; in part due to the demographic challenge. –The overarching issue is the long‐
term sustainability of a tax funded health system
d)
manpower shortage and the challenge of educating and recruiting staff with the right mix of
knowledge and skills in all parts of the system
e)
inequity in access, utilization of service, and in health outcome
f)
high expectations in the population and sustaining legitimacy and trust of the public in the
health system in the long run
g)
globalization/Europeanization of health care markets & health tourism
h)
how to integrate private providers and financing within a universal and comprehensive public
health care system and how to create a level playing field for competition
Opportunities
i)
new treatments, e.g. personalized medicine. .
j)
new technology, e.g. telemedicine, digital infrastructure (EPR, patient management, quality
assessment) or transition to (more) ambulatory care
k)
expectations and competencies of the population participation and self care
l)
redesign of work processes in the whole health system (in part due to the fiscal pressure, but
also due to new hospital facilities)
.
Fast track procedures, patient pathways
m)
‘hospital of the future’ – new hospital facilities and organizations along with ‘primary care of
the future’.
n)
Interaction with private sector (business and NGO) for development of new organizational
forms, medical practices and technologies
SO, even though this plan is rapidly destroying 100% of the Countries that try it, liberals here are Hell bent on dragging us down this same rabbit hole! With all the Historical data on the unrelenting damage this malignant policy brings; those too ignorant to do an internet search, want to lead us into Their future while we are forced to die early! But they make up for it, by forcing us to pay for that early death!
Even a minor student of History would be able to show you that this is a terrible way to go! Highest cost, and lowest quality healthcare available on the planet, that never works...EVER!
More harm was done to US Healthcare by the "Affordable" 'Care' Act! Since it is NOT Affordable, nor does it involve medical Care for people! It is the largest theft in History, and the biggest scam ever pulled on the USA!
