The France link didn't work for me. But, again, why would we A GREAT NATION, expect to develop something that is not also the best?

The SS is not okay because it isn't supporting what it is costing us. No where near. That is the whole problem. Medicare/Medicaid are killing us, so we need to change something. A national health care system is a natural progression. It will happen sooner or later.

I am super glad you can afford a great health plan that you can afford. I can, too. That just isn't the point.
