It can and will change though. I remember - thinking about Margaret Thatcher in the UK - that the UK was then known as "the sick man of Europe", because they had killed their private sector with decades of socialist nonsense.
Taxes on some parts of their society got up to as high as 94% - can you IMAGINE.
When MT was done, taxes had been lowered to less than 45%, despite fighting the war with the IRA (which nearly killed her), and the war with Argentina over the Falklands Is.
So it CAN be done, and when the US finds itself, like all the socialist countries, becoming poorer and poorer, as a whole - then things will start changing.
It's so hard though, when problems like health care are present - because every single aspect of health care is a rampant rip off - from malpractice suits with stupid juries that award millions of dollars to patients, not because there's been malpractice - but because they let their sympathy get in the place of common sense.
When a patient is warned to do something IN WRITING, TWICE, by two different doctors, and refuses - and then suffers the consequence - it's insane to have a jury force the doctors to pay millions of dollars.
But that's commonly seen. The trial lawyers love it, of course!
Philippines are the new digs? Not the Southern Islands, I hope?
