Will America ever get Universal healthcare?

american here. i've travelled a lot. there's 2 barriers i see. our system is very complicated by comparison, a blend of private and public health care that doesn't talk to each other. so, coordinating a universal system will require a major transformation. the other barrier i see is how to fund it, either through new taxation or by redirecting current taxes.

other than that, there's still the problem of rural areas without proper health infrastructure, and the polarized political environment...


Not in my lifetime.
