Those of you from other countries, let's hear from you. Would you trade what you have for the USA system?

To be brutally honest, what you have in the USA scares the living hell out of me. My country isn't great by any stretch of the imagination, there's still a lot of inequity, but compared to what you have in the US, it's like a dreamland.

I just don't get it on a human level, how anybody could be refused treatment because of money. It's sickening, degrading, and yes... it's evil. When money comes before human beings then everything is wrong.
