So which nation's system do you think is a good example for the USA to use?

That's easy. Just cherry pick all the positives and ignore the negatives of the Australian, French, Canadian, and British systems (make sure you ignore the Polish, Slovak, Hungarian, and Bulgarian UHC systems entirely as their dismal failure isn't relevant to this discussion), and the result of this will be the American UHC system.
If single payer systems are so good and work so well....why are almost ALL such systems failing and now requiring the rationing of care or for the people to buy supplemental insurance?
Ever consider the possibility that Democrats want it to fail? Why else would they push so hard for something they know has already failed everywhere it has been tried?

Maybe I should enter politics?
or you could look at the standing of the US in health Care...37th.

the point is, the government DOES pay for those things for your health and convenience, and so that business can run as smoothly as possible. You all may like the idea for yourselves of being cowboys on a buffalo trail living in the woods but the actual country has to function.
Actually it will be someone in accounting deciding such matters....just as with the NHS in the UK.
And it will be okay with supporters of such systems right up until it is THEM or THEIR loved ones getting shafted,THEN it will be a tragedy and an outrage.
I have come to the conclusion that the supporters of such systems simply want others to pay for them,it is based upon their own selfishness and has almost nothing to do with helping the less fortunate.
Maybe if we start to thin the herd we won't have to make such choices in the future.

Of course it won't be you or your loved ones that would be thinned would it??
