Why No Universal Healthcare?

The answer is largely that the health insurance industry has an extremely powerful lobby that makes the idea of nationalized healthcare an impossibility.

Of course, it doesn’t help that Americans are singular in their indifference to the well-being of their countrymen.  This has always been a feature of life here in the U.S., but Trumpism has taken it to a new level of selfishness and cruelty.

If you ask Europeans if they think it’s acceptable to let people die of treatable diseases, they’d laugh in your face.
