Should the USA have Universal Health Insurance plan administered by the government?

Every other industrialized country has such a plan. Don't drag out the Canada excuse. Most Canadians overwhelmingly approve of their program. 16% of Americans have no coverage while private insurance company executives are paid $75million or more including stock options

Yes. I live in Canada, and can speak with more authority that someone whose grandparents lived in Canada for a while. I would MUCH rather wait for a medical procedure, than find out that my insurance company refuses to pay for it. Private insurance companies don't give a flying fart about your health, whereas government has a vested interest in your health. Insurance companies can far too often find a loophole in your policy that allows them to say, "No, we won't pay for your life-saving heart surgury." That way, they make gobs of money! You paid them, then they don't pay you! What a scam. Under a government-run system, you will get the surgury, regardless. It pressures the government to take health more seriously when they have to pay for it. No doctor ever has to turn away a patient due to the patient's financial status. When Canadians are sent to the US, the government still pays for it. So we still get the care we need, even if we need to go somewhere else. Yes, there are weaknesses in Canada's plan, with wait times being the most significant. Emergencies are dealt with quickly, but non-emergencies usually have long waits. But given the choice between care waited for or care denied, I'll take the wait!
