Since I've been participating in this topic, I've had occasion to learn a few things. One is to recognize that that's not so. We have a continuum of systems. It seems that the French system is more like ours than it is like the British.

Different except that they both cover everyone. Which we don't.

Either you are not reading carefully or you are the one being obtuse. There is no contradiction between the two statements. Yes, many are under- and un-insured AND, yes, everyone has some access to health care.

If you can't afford it you don't have access. Why are you parsing words? You saw the charts about the people who didn't get medical attention because they couldn't afford it.
