"Canada had a lower infant mortality rate and greater life expectancy and spent less of its gross domestic product on health expenditures."

All industrialized, civilized countries have free health care coverage for their citizens, except the US which has a state sponsored commercialized predatory health care system.

The US spends billions on military aid to countries like Japan and Israel, that both have free health care for their citizens. 

Congress grants themselves the best health care for free as Senator Hirono is receiving, but leaves the rest of us to have our bones picked clean by health care providers with their skyrocketing premium charges and increasing deductibles.

I do believe, Ms. Kozak, your article should reflect the outrage the public is experiencing about the inflationary predatory health care system in this country!
