and unless we are going to force preventive care on people, they are always going to neglect their well care. How many people in UK and elsewhere neglect their health to avoid the inefficient system?
In any case, coverage for minors is available in every State I am aware of with an excellent program that even includes dental care and prescriptions. I am not absolutely certain it is available everywhere but Alabama has it through Blue Cross and if Alabama has it who doesn't?
I have always fanticized a national health care program that would be efficient, financially feasible and good enough to be universal. So far there is no example out there and the numbers do not work out
Until they can come up with a program that is good enough for our law makers and not just the poor, we are probably better off with what's already available. Any healthcare program that is institutionalized solely for the poor will be nothing more than a controlled mortality program.
One thing is certain, radical leftist dreamers and citzens of other countries are mostly clueless on U.S. healthcare.
