Nationalized Universal Insurance

So most developed countries have universal healthcare insurance, and the major exception, America, has much higher overall healthcare costs and lower healthcare outcomes.

Using the same reasoning, since insurance of things like cars, homes, etc. is generally required to be purchased, why isn't it ever considered for nationalization or universal coverage either? We all know that insurance tends to screw people over who often need it, and that the companies make a profit and therefore end up not paying out what they take in from payments. Would it then not make more sense to have a general insurance tax and have certain types of insurance like car, home, etc. reimbused or covered by the government? If anything it seems other forms of insurance seem like they would benefit more from universality than healthcare insurance would.

'nother bump

Other countries dont have half breed niggers to babysit. Socialism only works when the populace does.

So do you think, say, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Austria, Australia, etc. any of the supermajority white Western first-world countries could do it successfully? This isn't specific to America.

If it could save money then there's no reason not to do it, the average person would have more spending money

not it wouldnt you fagit ctr

is that because real socialism has never been tried

> An American's definition of socialism
You'd probably consider Denmark, Sweden, Norway, France, Germany, Britain, and many other countries socialist which work perfectly well and have high qualities of life.

>perfectly well and have high qualities of life.

if you didnt have a dumb fucking job ctr

you would meet european buisness men and all they talk about is how shit and failed their countries programs are

US healthcare system is garbage

Agreed. That's the point I'm making though, in many other countries with universal healthcare systems the quality of care overall is better despite lower per capita expenditures on it. I'd argue that insurance in the US and in many other countries in general beyond healthcare is garbage and we should think about something similar to see if it could be improved.

2 ctr retards making a fake conversation

Remind me again of how many people in other countries go bankrupt from not being able to pay medical expenses again?

Why not have the government just build the houses and cars as well?

dont fuking reply to me ctr

u giant fagit

>most developed countries have universal healthcare insurance

that will never happen, since US would need to completely remove its entire slave system:

>abolish the FDA
>abolish billion $$ clinical trials that impede development and increase costs
>abolish chemical/financial/insurance industry that speculate on the sick and profit on illness
>abolish excessive micromanagement and regulation of doctors and allow freedom of practice and choice

>abolish red tape, bureaucracy, paper work, and the top-down command-control authoritarian system

>implement swift drug repurposing and control drug prices

This is all according to the WHO:

"The U.S. health system spends a higher portion of its gross domestic product than any other country but ranks 37 out of 191 countries according to its performance"

"The United Kingdom, which spends just six percent of GDP on health services, ranks 18th."

Among the largest economies France was the closest to being first overall, and Italy took first place.

Literally all of these countries spend substantially less per capita on healthcare than the US does.

fuck off ctr commie
move to venezeula if you want socialized dick sucking

People should know by now that healthcare/insurance are not normal markets for numerous reasons. There's a high level of inelastic demand, the product/service is ill-defined, and the outcome of care is uncertain, among other things. This is the reason that healthcare is universally such a regulated or government-operated industry, because it functions so much differently than most other services/utilities/industries. Construction and manufacturing aren't anything like it.

>Yes goyim it's good to provide a source of money for us to freely take fro- I MEAN, to use in order to have you wait 9 months for a knee replacement surgery

> What is a private alternative
Many countries with single payer or universal systems still operate private hospitals and insurance systems/plans. If it's taking too long to get treatment for something you can pay for a new plan or pay directly for surgery with a privately operating doctor.

Not only that, but
> Yes goyim it's good to provide more money for us than you would with a universal system, to use in order to have you go bankrupt from being unable to pay your $300,000 expenses

I could move to Germany, Austria, Norway, or any other really nice country which provides universal healthcare and save money on it while also having a really good life.
