And France isn’t Germany. And Holland isn’t Cuba.
Universal medical has been shown to work across the board. No exceptions. Not one.
Land size. Population. Wealth. Form of government…….It doesn’t matter. It works everywhere. It’s been proven everywhere. No exceptions.
And adjustments will be made. The average country spends half of what the US spends, per capita. Imagine if they doubled their budget and spent the equivalent of the US. Twice as many doctors and nurses and hospitals and …..
Countries with government medical have been belly-aching for years and years and years, however, the citizens have benefited for 30 or 40 or 50 years. Not bad for something that doesn’t work.
The costs can be addressed by having a universal plan but we all know who’s stopping that. However, as time passes a universal plan will be brought into force because not one country with a universal plan ever reverted to the archaic “pay or suffer” system. Not one.
Once the citizens actually see the benefits, live them, experience them, there will be a rush to have a universal plan. No wonder the Repubs are panicking. As soon as the citizens find out the truth a lot of the bozos will be out of a job.
How do I know? I know because not one country on the entire planet ever reverted to the "pay or suffer" system and every country started out with one. Once the people see the benefits the Repub party will be standing in the unemployment line.

It depends on how you define "working". Many people don't consider letting old people die a valid costcutter. Rationing and death panels is the ugly downside that gets swept under the rug.
