One thing to keep in mind on talking about Universal Health care, all of the Western European Nations have had it since the end of W.W. II. So the cost of implementing it were pretty low and it now it is an established institution.

For us to do the same thing in today's world would be a huge cost. If it will cost California somewhere around $400 Billion in just that state, then how much nationwide. Several Trillion Dollars Maybe? Then how to pay for it, California is talking about adding a 13% wages tax.

Sounds beautiful and Utopian until those pesky details of how to pay for it and implement it.
