Medicaid is our governmental response to the poor in this country so we have never turned our backs on "the disabled, the elderly, children and the working poor".   Are wealthy Americans less American than you or I?  Do they not possess the same rights to ownership of personal property?  I was treated for Cancer in a facility paid for by the Koch Brothers.  Billions of dollars are donated to medical facilities, hospitals and research by "our nations wealthiest".  It is interesting how the left can use hate speech against "the rich" and bark "white privilege" and never acknowledge their prejudices and racism.   

You are wrong about America being the only country to use for-profit healthcare. People are happy to pay for good health. https://www.pacificprime.com/country/europe/

"Single payer" is code for government controlled healthcare.  The Veteran's Administration healthcare atrocities are legion yet you wish the entire country forced to endure such inefficient "healthcare".
