No special perks for fat-cat Congressmen, no private clinics for bureaucrats, no sweetheart prescription deals for anyone. Everyone gets treated the same. There are too many instances in this country, and especially in the communist countries, where the people who make the rules are exempt from them.

If I know that I'm getting the same level of care as a Senator, at the same cost, then I'll trust a government controlled system. Otherwise, it's just another panacea to help control the masses.
When they even fails to provide Food for All, how can they dream of something like Universal Health program?

Even Now people like the socialistic dystopian dreams.

Any Collective-Welfare program, be it American or British or Indian always fails because of the natural corruption collectivism causes.
