I have some of the only socialized healthcare in th US and it is unbelievable. If I was badly injured, I could take an ambulance to the ER and get an x-ray, EKG, and medicine all for around $200 out of pocket. That's orders of magnitude less than average for an American. We need to make these programs available for everyone regardless of income, status, or employer.
