The point is you're a whiner. I didn't prove that - you did.

You are a whiner. Nothing ad-hom about it. You've said nothing that needs avoiding, you just whined. Come to think about it, you're really good at projection.

I haven't been attempting to debunk high costs in the US healthcare system. I know they are. The point I disagree with you is your statement that UHC cannot work in the US.

[Note: Less than a week left to discuss this.] There's the Left Wing; there's the Right Wing... that seems to be about it in the US. In Britain and Europe there's a lot of people in between, more central in their politics. We need to create a Demoblican Party for those of us who do not espouse extreme positions. We also need a better name for it; "Repucrat" just doesn't work either. Any suggestions? Who would join such a party?

That's pretty much how the democrat party started. The democrats have become extremists though, and the only centrist party (or non-extreme at least) is actually the republicans who remain fairly centre-right.

UHC cannot work when costs are still too high. That is my argument; not that UHC in and of itself won't work. You have to lower wages and the cost of medical equipment, supplies, hospital stays, etc. for UHC to have a chance. UHC will never work in this country because those things that I have listed will never change. Again, that is my argument. 7 Reasons Why Universal Healthcare Won’t Work in the US[^]
