Understanding national healthcare

The medical care in America, while of extremely high quality, is costly. It is often this high cost which prevents those who need it most from obtaining, literally, life saving services. This reason alone should be a compelling force for taking a look into the national healthcare systems in place around the world, all of which spend less than America, and usually have longer life expectancies and happier citizens. The resistance to nationalizing healthcare in America, then, is surprising. Upon investigation I realized the majority of this resistance is due to misinformation or ignorance of any system other than the one currently in place. To help inform citizens about nationalized healthcare and to answer pertinent questions by current medical professions about onverting to a nationalized system, I created two pamphlets, one to target each audience.
