I was saved by a democratic socialist country when I was visiting western Europe and required health care. They did not ask me if I had health insurance. The Drs did everything they could to provide the absolute best health care TO ME, instead of their own pocket book like here in the U.S. Universal health care should be a right of every citizen. And that's the difference between universal health care in countries like France, England, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Japan, Australia, New Zealand etc... pretty much ALL the western countries BUT one, and the sucking most expensive crappiest FOR PROFIT health care system in the US that is actually structured to care more for PROFITS than PEOPLE. The American health care system SUCKS SUCK SUCKS. And the numbers show HOW BIG IT SUCKS. We are DEAD LAST or ALMOST DEAD LAST BY EVERY METRIC except one. PROFITS FOR CORPORATIONS. The same American drugs that you pay through the nose here in the US are being sold 70% less outside the US. The same procedures that you can have here in the US and are 3x more expensive, you can have them in Europe at 1/3 the cost and with MUCH BETTER OUTCOMES. Unless your parents came from a communist country and NOT a democratic socialist one, THEY LIED LIED LIED to you.
