In our travels we have befriended a lot of Americans and it seems to me,it's the people in the middle who suffers the most in the US.
People who work but have no insurance from their employer,but still make too much to qualify for medi-care,but not enough to be able to buy very expensive insurance.

Our member Nuria,is a great example,she works fulltime,but insurance is way out of her range.
Breastcancer runs in her family,she needs a mammogram,but cannot afford it,so she goes on worrying,with no help from anyone.

If you are on welfare,I am sure you get care in the US,but they are not on a priority-list,also do not get the excellent care an insured patient would get.

Personally,I have never waited long for care and my sons both had complicated surgeries,with excellent care,the only thing I paid for was parking..so Universal Health care is the way to go,nobody should have to sell their home, because they are sick.
