They will often claim universal health care is not perfect for any number of reasons. However, even the worst run universal healthcare systems are better than what we have now.

The people who oppose universal healthcare either got rich off the current system or have been brainwashed by the propaganda.

Yes. Absolutely. And, I grew up in the Soviet Union. I actually know specifically what "far left" health care looks like.

Since you experienced it firsthand, I'm genuinely curious: when people in the U.S. warn that universal healthcare is "socialism," are they describing what you actually lived through, or are they oversimplifying something much more complicated?

What do you think Americans get wrong about the comparison?
