    When the Right is awake their enemies tremble in fear.

    The American Right isn't 100% awake, but they're damn sure waking up FAST.

    "Free market" implies unregulated. A degree of socialization in the form of government regulation is essential in a scenario that literally cries out "YOUR MONEY OR YOUR LIFE!!!" OUR government's intervention is not enough to keep medical costs from being "government-sanctioned extortion".

    We are the last economic superpower denying our citizens universal coverage, for the sole purpose of fully exploiting a lucrative market. . . . Should we feel proud???

    Mexico, India, Thailand, Brazil, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines...

    Good god dude, have you never heard of medical tourism before? That's what people do when they want to get good inexpensive healthcare.

    Well first you have to put it in perspective of where Universal healthcare exists.

    You're just a brand of statism. Most people are sick to death of it. There's no traction for you to gain.

    It's just a matter of who's more resolute; you, in your "god and country" or whatever the **** your purpose happens to be, over against us, in our "we just don't agree with your irrational made up bullshit" we-don't-have-a-purpose-but-we-know-that-you-sound-exactly-like-the-*******s-who-are-oppressing-us-now-crowd.

    WRONG.
    We DID NOT and DO NOT have the best healthcare.
    By many measures - infant mortality, for one, we are far from the best...
    We ARE, by FAR the COSTLIEST

    I have, and I've mentioned it itt. However, medical tourism is separate from universal healthcare, which all of the countries you mentioned have.

    The 3rd world horde in California don't matter. And they we'll be booted the hell out soon anyways.

    This country votes by the electoral voters and WE have the clear majority.

    Have a tissue.

    It was a simple question.

    Which nations on the face of the earth now offer a market based healthcare model that works better, is less expensive, and produces better outcomes than the universal healthcare model?

    Not one example has been provided.

    That 3rd world horde in California keeps Washington running in the black.

    You're gonna miss us more than you think.

    "Our fruit"? That's a laugh. Okra isn't what I would consider a "national vegetable".

    My favorite? NEW YORK - who knows a con-man when it sees one, SOUNDLY REJECTED the B.S. Artist. Trump didn't win his home state! How pathetic is THAT?
    I can't think of another candidate that didn't win their home state.
    LOSER. Sad.

    You think Mexico has universal healthcare? The philippines?

    You've never really been to those countries, I'm guessing.

    Try getting out some more because you really have no clue.

    "won the electoral votes by such a wide margin" :roflol:

    As to the map, empty space doesn't get a vote. People get a vote. The majority of people who voted rejected the Immature Twitter twit BY A LOT.
