It is not a complicated thing to understand. The U.S. pays ~15% of gdp for healthcare. Most other "developed" countries pay ~10%. Why is that? Is it because they suck? Is it because they have to wait for treatment? The reason is that we are the dumbest people in the industrialized word. We fall for these scare tactics from these guys like Frank Lutz. He runs his focus groups for the GOP and figures out that by calling the Democrats plan a "government takeover" most Americans will oppose it. The rest is history. If we weren't so fucking dumb we would already have a Bismarck model system like Germany.
