Universal healthcare was first proposed in the late 40's or early 50's and it didn't pass.

The ACA was passed and it leaves a lot to be desired.

I don't think we will ever see universal healthcare work in this country. The countries that do have universal healthcare usually have a very high tax rate. People resent when more money is taken from them. The healthcare industry in the USA is too big, to lose control of their market.

I remember the days where one worked for a company and didn't have to pay much to get decent health coverage. I don't know what changed, as this has become an uncontrollable monster.

Is it a matter of healthcare companies being competitive with their rates? Do we need some form of regulation without letting the government run healthcare coverage?I know everything gets more expensive as time goes on, but this is absurd.

I don't think I will ever see a real good universal system of healthcare coverage but I am sure this will be an ever evolving system of healthcare, whether it may be good or bad. Unfortunately, I think healthcare is going in the wrong direction.
