Problem: Americans are dying because they don't have access to healthcare. They kill themselves rather than saddle themselves and their families with medical debt. They are crushed under medical debt that prevents them from contributing to other sectors of the economy. The current health system is a vampire on our economy.
Answer: Everyone should have access to health care just like everyone access to the fire department and police department and the USPS.
At the end of the day, my concern is that everyone can get healthcare when they need - preferably preventative healthcare both because it costs less and incurs less suffering.
Ideally, I think we should build a system similar to the UK NHS system, but I'm willing to compromise on execution as long as we have 100% health coverage for every American that is free at the point of service.
