Second comment I will make is about Obamacare! 😇😇😇 As Bernie Sandars once said Obamacare is a step forward but does NOT go far enough! 😥😥😥 We NEED Medicare For All instead! 😇😇😇 For an American I am super lucky to have VERY good healthcare insurance but I work as a receptionist in a small hospital and two of my three kids are also on medicaid BUT soooooooooo many Americans over the years have sadly gone bankrupt from our cruel healthcare system and while Obamacare helps a little, it doesn't go far enough! 😭😭😭 Obamacare is like if you are homeless Medicare For All is a brand new house, our healthcare system is leaving you on your own and Obamacare is placing you under some sort of shelter or second example if you have no food Medicare For All is a supply of meals, our healthcare system is zero food and Obamacare is one chocolate bar! 🤦♀🤦♀🤦♀Again we NEED Medicare For All instead! 💖💖💖

I donate to two charities one a local autism charity near my home and two a charity that pays for children's medical bills! 😇😇😇 It is truly cruel that our barbaric healthcare system isn't even free for children! 🤦♀🤦♀🤦♀ I hope with all my heart Medicare For All gets passed and while even I do not agree with Bernie Sandars and AOC on everything (defunding the police is stupid), they are my two favourite American politicians in the universe because they support the welfare state in ways other American politicians don't and they support free tax paid Universal Healthcare in the form of Medicare For All and that is why I absolutely LOVE Bernie Sandars and AOC! 💖💖💖

Well the whole economic system is as well apart of the problem anyway.
Please, I do know that universal healthcare has problems. And those problems are all based in a UNHEALTHY economic system.
Why do you think it takes so long as well as costs so much just to do a DNA sequencing? 🤷🏻♂
It's the economics.
The poor under universal healthcare could never afford what is necessary to cure cancer no matter what. Even if there was a cure. The economic greed would still be preventative.
It's more than just doctors. It's biochemists, genetists, physicists and everything else that supports the healthcare system. All of which costs money and the wealthy themselves must get their own cut of the profits.
It's the very concept of, that it takes money to make money, that is the problem.

1. more previously-undiagnosed cancers are now being detected and recorded.
2. people now live longer (in part because of better cancer treatments) so cancers have a longer time-span in which to develop.
3. improvements in treatments for other diseases sometimes have related side-effects e.g. rheumatoid arthritis requires the immune system to be suppressed, so there's a consequential increase in opportunistic cancers.

Our healthcare system is barbaric, cruel, horrible and truly sad and when Americans call our healthcare system "the best in the world" they are 100% right IF they add this sentence "for the rich" because our cruel healthcare system is in some ways the worse in the world if you are poor! 😭😭😭 Medical bankruptcy is almost unheard of outside of America and America is the ONLY first world country without Universal Healthcare so we NEED Medicare For All to pass because I believe with all my heart healthcare shouldn't be about profit or a business instead healthcare should be about love and compassion! 😇😇😇 Bernie Sandars and AOC are my two favourite politicians because they advocate for free tax paid Universal Healthcare which is something I will support forever because EVERYONE deserves healthcare in my opinion regardless of income, crime history, age, status or situation! 💖💖💖

I did read about the healthcare system in Cuba a few years ago. It seemed really good.
I also saw footage of Americans going there and paying $2 for epi pens that would cost them hundreds of $s in the USA.
Again i read of a young American man who died becauae he couldn't pay for his diabetic insulin,he was in full time work and only 26 years old.
