Somebody is gonna suffer no matter what system they choose. The rich and middle class are gonna get it through taxes with universal medicine, or the poor if they continue status quo.
I was thinking about my situation as an example. My dialysis and other medical costs probably rack up about 70K a year. If I hadn't joined the Marine Corps I don't know how my life would have turned out. But making those kinds of costs universal to every person in the U.S. as a right is gonna cost CRAZY taxes. Any one know the tax rates in countries with universal medicine compared to the U.S? Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
