Well, Healthcare is something that I said that I'd be willing to go along with depending on its implementation so I actually thought picking that one to hone in on was interesting since I don't think we really disagree on the subject. Though I think while you tend to be like the US can do it better, I kind of think most of us (including myself) have an incredible knack for doing stupid stuff...
Unfortunately, you are correct. We, the US, already do very stupid things compared to other countries when it comes to health care. I am arguing that continuing to look at alternative solutions to the current system as inherently bad because of some arcane McCarthy era scares (which is the entire no universal-health-care, no affordable care act argument is) - is one of these stupid things.
BTW - I do not want universal-health-care because I care for it, I just want to get better or equal health-care for less - and since I am mathematical inclined and have been looking at financial data for a long time - it irates me that we are not looking at proven solutions when the data is so obvious.
