Socialized medicine is fine unless you have an extremely serious disease or one that is not in need of specialized health care providers.

Many people can coast when they are younger because of their good health and promote socialized medicine, but when the rubber hits the road, you need more and better than what socialized medicine gives most people. AND the cost and the wastage are far worse than the cost and wastage in our current American systems. People have to wait and their income tax (Austria for example) is close to 50% for all wage earners.
