I really sympathise with where people are coming from, but I just wish everyone would take a look at history. Why are we the largest economy in the world? Hard work (less vacations than any western European country) is of course one reason, but capitalism is the main factor. We can survive as a nation by following in the footsteps of Europe, but we cannot maintain our prosperity. Socialized medicine is going to take us halfway there. Yeah.

I'm pretty sure that line of thinking is what got the stimulus package passed. There's a reason the US is where it is today. If we follow Europe's example we've got nowhere to go but down.

In the US it will not be very long before all of us boomers are covered by Medicare. This will seem like universal health care for those people paying income tax.
