The 50 most developed countries in the world and Universal Healthcare.

[Anathema]

Except that in the 19th century you have millions of people in the United States living in Slavery, Women could not vote, and Business often used little children for labor.

Not sure I see the major problem there...

I’m against racially-based slavery but not the practice itself.

I don’t believe women should have any political power. Especially not the vote.

Many children do not have the intellectual power for higher education, and would benefit from apprenticeship and technical/professional training instead of high school.

 

[dannyboys]

Damn, does not believe we should have contact with other countries. That's pretty radical.

Very radical for the 21st Century. Not so radical for the 19th century, when this country was still a decent place to live.

Except that in the 19th century you have millions of people in the United States living in Slavery, Women could not vote, and Business often used little children for labor.

You mean like in India and China today?

 

[dannyboys]

How many people would quit their shit job tomorrow if it would not cost them and their family insurance? A curious kind of wage slavery exists in America where we accept all sorts of bad behavior by management because they know what it would cost us to stand up and have some pride. Similarly businesses are burdened with the expense of offering insurance instead of decent wages. In short our system is a drag on capitalism.

I'm sure another few million illegals will help remove the "drag on capitalism" right?
Let's get Beto to start tearing down all the barriers on the S. border right?
You sound a LOT like someone who's never had a decent job.

 

[Chiara]

Just curious U2Edge: when you say Cyprus, do you mean the Republic of Cyprus? What's the situation in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus? Do they have universal healthcare or not?
I'm asking you this because I know Cyprus is split in two different countries (even if Norther Cyprus in unrecognized all over the world...)

Below are the 50 most developed countries in the world ranked according to the UN Human Development index which measures development and standard of living through estimates of GDP per capita, life expectancy, and education. There are a total of 197 countries in the world today. 193 of those countries are part of the United Nations. 45 out of the 50 most developed countries in the world below provide UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE for its citizens, essentially medicare for all. The following are the five countries from the list below that do not:

01. Cyprus
02. United Arab Emirates
03. Qatar
04. Bahrain
05. United States

Cyprus is currently In the process of moving to a Universal Healthcare system which will be completed in a few years. That will leave the United States alone with three Arab countries as being the only countries, of the 50 most developed in the world, that do not have Universal HealthCare.

Why does the United States, the wealthiest country in the world and the 3rd wealthiest per captia country, still not provide Universal Healthcare for its citizens? How could anyone say that Universal HealthCare is impossible or too expensive for the United States when nearly all of the 50 most developed countries in the world provide it for its citizens?

So, all the highly ranked countries are mostly white?

Racist motherfucker.

The list is not based on race, its based on GDP per capita, life expectancy, and education levels. Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and Brunei are definitely not mostly white in terms of race.

I'd like to know how Canada is more developed than America. We have an annual Baby Seal Hunt for God Sakes and individual liberty is non existent. You ever see how brutal it is to kill a week old baby seal with an ice pick? Is that how developed societies operate?

I've said my piece a few times about healthcare in Canada. I could give you 1000 more details that would blow you away. Trust me when I say this, do NOT emulate Canadas system.

What does a fucking seal hunt have to do with UHC you MORON!!!!!!
The US has an annual 'crab boil' and an annual 'Pancake Day! How would YOU like to be poured on a hot plate and then have some brat eat half of you and leave the rest! WELL?????????

San Marino and Vatican City are more developed than Italy....what the hell...

Similar education and life expectancy, but San Marino and Vatican City have much higher per capita GDP. San Marino has a per capita GDP of $59,000. Italy's per capita GDP is only $38,200. San Marino also has higher life expectancy at 83.4 to Italy's 82.4.

JAPAN: population 127 MILLION! Universal Healthcare for all its citizens!

The Japanese public debt exceeded one quadrillion yen or about US$10.46 trillion in 2013, more than twice the country's annual gross domestic product.

 

[U2Edge]

“Why does the United States, the wealthiest country in the world and the 3rd wealthiest per captia country, still not provide Universal Healthcare for its citizens?”

Because conservatives have successfully propagated the lie that in addition to being ‘too expensive,’ providing all Americans access to affordable healthcare will ‘destroy capitalism’ and make America ‘socialist’ – when in fact nothing could be further from the truth.

Because the government can't get a ham sandwich right so imagine how much it will fuck up medicine

U.S. government gets the military right. The United States has the best military in the world. But its non-government for profit healthcare system ranks about 34th in the world based on U.S. life expectancy.

Actually, U.S. spending on healthcare dwarfs its spending on the military. The United States spends about five times as much on healthcare as it does on the military. U.S. spending on the military over the past 20 years as a percentage of GDP has been lower than it was during the peacetime of the late 1970s and 1980s.

They're living well but maybe just from a material point of view. It seems that unhappiness is a sad reality in Japan. As far as I know Japan has one of the highest suicide rate in the world
