The sad reality of this issue, is the underlying focus on money. The amount of funding needed for a workable universal healthcare system is simply not there at this point. This country would need a fundamental overhaul of allocation priorities, were it to even consider going this route.
At this point we are engaged in an attempt to colonialize, without the landgrab, and that takes an enormous amount of resources out of the nations coffers, setting domestic issues that require funding on the backburner. While we can attempt to create a system on paper, we will likely wait several decades to see any action taken.
I doubt very much our country can take dramatic changes seriously, as far as domestic reform, until we can stabalize our foreign policy, as the current "Wars" are using most of the availible funding we have.
Just my opinion.
