Well, off the top of my head:
Canada is offering private alternatives, Czech Republic, Sweden and even Great Britain is starting to offer some private alternatives.
Glad you never had a problem. But I'd be willing to bet that your country hasn't done a fraction of the R&D, Breakthroughs of new and improved drugs, new and improved procedures, new and improved equipment, etc...
All of that costs money and all of it is taken for granted in countries that use it.
The private sector drives innovation. Socialize Americas health care and innovation comes to a halt.
