Because labor unions are extremely weak compared to other countries.
Labor unions democratize society like nothing else does. No unions = no universal health care. Its no coincidence that Social Security and Medicare were implemented at a time of relatively strong union organizing.
The moneyed elite hates labor unions with a passion as it slightly weakens the enormous power of the super rich. But they want it all and nothing for the working class. Their greed is endless. So labor unions must be destroyed and with it any semblance of a public safety net.
Get a grip, if and when it ever happens, Everyone who gets it will Pay Higher Taxes...no insurance is free. Love my Medicare which I've had for over 15 yrs. Pay High taxes or pay for high insurance, can't have both.
And if we put less in Military we'd be able to do more for health than killing.
On this issue too, TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR OWN HEALTH, work on finding help for issues and don't forever run to doctors. There are millions of bits of info on healing ourselves, DO IT.
I'm 81 and see my doc once a year and otherwise do my OWN TYPE HEALING as best I can and no side effects from their costly drugs.

Because conservatives think there are too damned many worthless deadbeats, who don't deserve universal health care. They just want to rip off hard working people, who find it hard enough as it is to carry their own weight.

Because most people believe in paying for your own stuff. Most people don’t want government in their lives. Most government run programs don’t work.
Oh that's not so, MANY govt programs work great, our highways, fire and police depts, postal, love them all in my 81 yrs on planet. Complain complain complain so many good at that one.
