Hey Americans: Why are y'all against free healthcare?

Why are you happy for your taxes to go to firemen and police and roads but when it comes to universal healthcare you can't stand the idea of putting money in the pot?

I don't think people in the US and other countries understand that our healthcare system (doctors/providers, insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies) are financial institutions who profit (GREATLY) from sick people. Americans are brainwashed to think our doctors are the best and want the best for us. If that is the case, why does the United States have the highest infant mortality rate compared to other "wealthy countries" (Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, Portugal, The Netherlands, South Korea, Spain, the United Kingdom) ??

Greed. Ignorance.
