Kevin Drum presents poll results that show the poor and elderly (both on government-provided healthcare) are more satisfied with their healthcare system than those in the totally private market.
This idea that America has the best health care system in the world is simply false. It is rooted in the fact that Americans in general know little or nothing about the rest of the world.
Money dominates politics in this country, and money dominates the media. The result is that money is more important than people's lives and health. That's just plain unbalanced. It really needs to be fixed.
Getting national single-payer health care would be a start.
