Some in the US think that health care has to be earned, as though it is a luxury. Most of the "West" (western Europe, Canada, Brits, Aussies and New Zealand) see it as a right that they demand government support. Many in the US seem to not recognize that every civilized nation supports basic property rights. Only the US continues to stand on the position that health is a property right that the wealthy can withhold from others. Its a question of defining what "freedom" actually means.
Makes perfect sense if your a socialist...
