[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d rather live in any of those places than here. The universal healthcare alone would be a relief. [/quote]

Exactly. [/quote]

a relief from what, available heatlhcare and quality? Yes it may be expensive but remember we make like twice the amount of europe and its doesn't cost as much comapred to the taxes on income. [/quote]

NP-Healthcare is better quality in the US by far compared to Europe (more screening and testing, newer meds available, more advanced tech, more specialists, faster visits and procedures...) but the way it works in terms of payments should be made more equal and smoother. Many pay through taxes for some healthcare programs without benefitting (until old age) AND also have to pay for no-subsidy ACA plans or employer plans which are more and more expensive for many as (I know that's my personal case) some employers are now not really contributing as much for dependents. And some people opt out entirely due to cost or simply not knowing how to navigate programs they could be eligible for. It's not sustainable in the long run and we would really benefit from a public option. Some states have done that already or are in the process of doing it,  but it's not sweeping enough and we really need some sort of federal offering.[/quote]
