You guys can all jack off to how moral you are or whatever, but you do not have the god given right to live at somebody else's expense. This is the very definition of parasitism, taking the resources of something else by force to sustain yourself. If you need some medication and get it funded by tax payer money, I see you as no better than a man mugging people on the streets for that money. You're just adding in a middleman. This parasitic attitude is what has crippled our economy, the smart people are going to get around it for as long as possible and prepare for the inevitable collapse and you'll be stuck with the bill. We'll actually move somewhere where we aren't robbed unlike you who say you will leave over Trump and never do. Then after this, there will be no more people investing in America and jobs will dry up way more than they have already and you'll be impoverished while we've moved on to greater things.

I'm happy Jimmy got involved! This subject really needs to be spoken about more. For years I've heard about the free health care people get in other countries (I don't hear their citizens going into bankruptcy for needing surgery. It's also curious how we hear very little about the healthcare systems in Canada, France, and Japan in the United States.
I was even more surprised by other Americans who did NOT want universal health care; they didn't believe that this type of system could exist. They actually placed the blame on the patient that was diagnosed with some horrible disease; diseases that their doctors have said were not brought on by the patients themselves. I guess we just have to cross our fingers and hope to never get sick and to just trust whatever health insurance and what their puppet politicians tell us.

When my newborn boy had open heart surgery it didn't cost us anything. That included a flight cross country, living arrangements for 4 weeks and a couple of train trips to get our older son to the hospital. The only expenses we had were meals. As he had some related complications the following year, we had to spend a lot of time at the hospital. We had nurses coming to our house several times every week to check up on him. Again, cost us nothing. We had a lot of different medications to give him. Cost us nothing, as children up to the age of 18 doesn't have to pay for medicin or prescriptions. Last but not least, I got 80% of my salary paid by the state during the periods I couldn't be at work.
I can't understand how you can accept a system as the one you have over there.

My cousin lives abroad and we discussed this. Free healthcare is not a good idea, countries have this and it lowers the quality of care you receive significantly. Taxes would raise and take away half your income (funny how we call it free. A competitive healthcare market (our current US market is heavily regulated) is honestly the best solution. I understand a lot of you might not understand basic fundamental economics so let me say this, competition is better in every way than raising taxes for the consumer, higher quality for lower cost.

thats the thing why i would never want to live in the U. S.. health can change so fast and it can ruin you financially, so that you have to decide to rescue yourself and beeing homeless after that or stay at home and maybe die or live in pain.
For that im proud of my country (Germany) to provide us with such a good healthcare system even if you are unemployed. nobody needs to suffer here!

Dont take your word for it? What about every single Canadian that's become an American because they'd die in line for free health care but dont take my word for it. Clearly all the Canadians have the golden ticket. Jimmy do you even do comedy anymore? Oh that's right after disrespecting women for years prior to your new leaf turn of 2018 you basically became JNN.

Studying in Germany in 2012, I got sick. I was worried about the cost and suffered, putting off going to a doctor for as long as possible. I finally did and was stunned with the low bill of only $25 Euros ($38 dollars. My prescription was about 4 bucks. In the US this would have been about $400 total. We're getting screwed here people. Wake up!

How can the greatest, most amazing country in the world not work this out?
Come on America. I'm from Australia and universal health care is supported by both sides of politics here. I don't have to worry about whether or not I can afford health care. Show us that you are truly making America great again.

Americans: we cant do a single payer system because unemployment is too high
Also Americans: TRUMP IS THE BEST LOWEST UNEMPLOYMENT EVER!
Well. which is it? Is unemployment higher or lower or are you all just getting shafted by your elitist government.

It honestly baffles me that many Americans go bankrupt due to medical costs. Im from the UK and though our healthcare does have flaws, I have yet to hear of anyone going bankrupt by having to pay for their medical bills. I hope they can sort it out soon.
