It's the poor that suffer in a public health care plan - because the rich simply come to the USA for better care.

Sure in the micro sense but in the macro sense a nation that spends 20% of their GDP on healthcare- with nothing to show for it except a higher infant mortality level- is heading for economic decline imho. There is no real benefit to the US with all this spending.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Health-care spending is outpacing the growth of the American economy and will consume 20 percent of U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) by 2015, the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) said on Wednesday.
