There's nothing wrong with America becoming self aware. These are growing pains, and people are trying to reconcile what they've always believed with the reality they're actually seeing.
Just don't waste your time on those disingenuous types who never discuss things in good faith. You know, the ones that make you respond with, "actually, that's not what I said." And if you're the type who is routinely misconstruing the things others say and/or being ignorant with misplaced sarcasm, you're part of the reason the conversation is dragging ass instead of progressing to the next phase. --- Always bet on yourself.

1: Denmark has a larger number of agencies that oversee healthcare than the US and a higher amount of regulations on everything from drug and device prices to doctors so you're going to have to be specific about your claims on Denmark's regulatory framework. 2:Denmark's obesity rate is higher than both the EU and OECD average and only growing higher, and obesity is a major problem in virtually every modern developed nation, including those with universal healthcare and they still outperform the US's healthcare system. 3:Private healthcare coverage in Denmark only supplies supplemental and complementary coverage to public healthcare, plans that would exist under both Sanders and Warrens plans that have you so triggered. You have no idea about policy in Denmark, and even if you did you still wouldn't support their policies so that you're trying so hard to kill yourself on this hill is doubly hilarious.

I'm sure you ignore them because they don't fit your narrative and it's really funny how you guys go on and on away the failure of communism while constantly ignoring the daily failures of capitalism Like there are tons and tons of people starving in capitalists countries the failures of communist countries are because communism is a failed idelogy but the failures of capitalist countries aren't indicative of capitalism being a failure because i'll explain later --- "Conceit, arrogance and egotism are the essentials of patriotism"- Emma Goldman "Wimmy Wham Wham Wozzle!" -Slurms MacKenzie ...
