Thanks all! I appreciate the comments. My impression of others looking on the American system is - "Stupid Americans." Honestly, many of us inside think that ourselves. A majority here want UHC and our politicians continue to play footsies with the Health Care industry. Basically, we have a legal way to bribe politicians and we just can't get rid of that because they will never pass a law that takes away their money. I never had debt til I moved to my current state where Health Care is in the bottom 10 amongst the states. My health care covers nothing that I need. It's basically there in case I break a bone or something. Frustrating.

Anyway. Great discussion. I figured people who read are going to give more nuanced arguments than I get from political forums in the states. Breath of fresh air.
