Colin Powell marvels at the healthcare systems in most of the developed nations around the world and wonders why the US does not have a similar system? Frustration over the rollout of the ACA "Obamacare" many support a single payer system. People like Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt and Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash have complained about Obamacare and others not going far enough. General Colin Powell believes that the rest of the world have a system in place that is working. Supporters say tax-financed model would improve care and ends insurance company profits on healthcare.
Colin Powell quote:
""I don't see why we can't do what Europe is doing, what Canada is doing, what Korea is doing, what all these other places are doing," Powell said " Colin continued that "I have benefited by this type of health care for 55 years of my life." He shared a story from his firewood provider who needed an MRI and her healthcare plan would not cover the cost of it. Every country he visited has some kind of single payer healthcare and is apparently moved by the problems that his firewood provider is facing.
Another Colin quote:
"Whether it's Obamacare, or son of Obamacare, I don't care. As long as we get it done."
