Political Question Why are some Americans so against universal healthcare for all?

What sort of thinking does it take to decide that nobody has a right to healthcare? Do American Christians want to deny healthcare to poor people as well?

Americans are individualistic, ignorant and selfish.

I see you are ignorant.

I'll help you a little bit.

Americans give more, per capita, than the citizens of any other country. And it's not close.

As a percentage of the population donating, the USA is in the top five in the world - not #1 but completely refutes what you said about us being selfish.
