If you think government run healthcare is the solution you should talk to any military member or veteran; people are literally killing themselves in VA parking lots because the care is so bad.

Isn't a big part of it the huge wait times because VA hospitals are overburdened by the number of vets? If they were covered by any hospital in their area rather than specific VA hospitals, presumably the care would be a lot better.
And who controls for the number of vets and the number of VA hospitals? The government.

Do you think they would do better in a bigger version of this for the whole country?
