I'll repeat: the US is already spending public money per capita (to cover a few) equivalent to systems in Switzerland and Japan (that cover everybody).
Why can't those public dollars translate into basic care, catastrophic care, SOME kind of care, for everyone? We are all paying already. I paid taxes in, yet got not one dime of health care out.. had to pay for private insurance at $700/month. That's a figure many taxpayers cannot afford. So we have almost 20% of the population without insurance.. many without access to insurance.
How can anyone defend this state of affairs as rational?
