Americans get milked by doctors and hospitals -- but -- we can pay what ever it costs to try to live longer because some of us have lots of money.
We are getting ripped off and we know it.
It is against the laws here to nationalize businesses for public benefit without paying fair compensation. To nationalize the healthcare industry might cost the government $30 or $40 TRILLION (or even more).
The alternative is a dual system where the government buys and builds medical complexes and competes with private business -- that will be challenged in the courts "BIGLY" but Congress could pass a law that might stand and pass constitutional muster -- laws that can be proven to be in the public interest have good standing.
The vested interests are preventing this. If Trump was really a ''Man of the People'' he would put this on the table and push for it instead of wasting time and money building stupid walls to appease simple minded people
