Problem is, the political system in the USA means the big $$$ commercial interest have got the politicians by the short and curlies. So while there's buck to be made, the politicians will dance to the strings pulled by the unelected faceless commercial interests and not enact legislation that will protect the population who voted for them. Not sure who's to blame .. the voters who keep electing the same offenders or the "votees" who continue to ignore the needs and wishes of their constituents?

@systemctl I hate to break it you but to the rest of the world Murikkkans are foreigners ;) ...and pretty much everywhere it's the same story, We welcome anyone except those damn fvcking Yanks! They've got to be the most universally despised race on Earth ;)

Ming_The_Merciless please tell the foreigners where to go. they need options and for some reason they still want to come to the US, even with all the guns and hate speech.

No need to systemctl. We have a very similar system here... and much better weather than the UK. It's the US that is dragging the chain and letting the side down

i'm glad that the UK gives free healthcare to all foreigners. everyone should go there.

I'd MUCH rather live in a society where Health Care and not guns are considered a "right" !

Like others have said earlier in this thread... Makes me not only glad but PROUD to be living in a Country with Universal Health Care. The US really is a Third World sh!thole !!!

I am in Canada, and even our health care isn't perfect. The big pharma companies need to be taken to task, profit for murder isn't capitalism. Diabetes has likely already been cured, but who would let out a cure when they can charge 500$ a month for insulin? The people making the profit should not be the people deciding if a cure is allowed out. There is far too much profit and far too little care about the people who want a cure. Like it's their fault they got diabetes or cancer... if these companies are found to be holding back a cure, they need to all go to prison. Not the rich peoples prison, but the ones where the inmates have family that died because of big pharmas greed. Let them see what dying in a prison is like for a change.

A perfect illustration of how laissez faire capitalism will ensure that you do not care for your poor and sick.

America is a third world sh!t hole, populated by idiots.

Just like Green_Hornet said: Makes me not only glad but PROUD to be living in a country with Universal Health Care. In my country all medicine for diabetes is free.

Fighting__40 you're absolutely right! People need to take responsibility for getting ill in the first place. If they can't afford the treatment they should die as God intended. As Veterans we need to stick together and F*ck anyone who is not all American. We may have people addicted to drugs and going on killing sprees but so what isn't that what makes America great!

@Fighting_40 My country is poor compared to yours(2nd richest in Africa with world-class amenities) and we`re still fighting imperialism because countries like yours have control of our banks, land and resources......WHAT`S YOUR EXCUSE? What's the point of all that money, when you can`t even provide healthcare and housing/land for your veterans?.......BTW we have single-payer healthcare AND first-class private hospitals for those who can afford it.....and you won't find a single employed, homeless person in my country (we don`t have people with jobs sleeping in cars here). lastly.....my countries advocating for Palestinians, MEANWHILE, the weapons ameriKKKa provided are being used to bomb children's hospitals.

thank God I`m South African, yes my country isn`t perfect, but atleast we`re not joke like ameriKKKa.......in China, corporations are afraid of the government, in ameriKKKa, corporations run the government......yes even China is better......how can a country allow a life saving drug to be sold at up to 5X the price of other countries......i wish I lived in a world where documentaries like these didn`t exsist
