"America would never take the European model of helath care. Given how corrupt American politicans are it would cost more then it should and funds would be diverted to unneccessary needs. Not only that but the American media always paints European model of health care negatively and american believe it, even though a simple look at the facts show that American media lies on the issue and that they use illogical methods to make their claims."

While the media does lie about european health care, I still don;t think socialized medicine could ever work in the USA. The US is far too diverse, and it has a porous border with a third world country. Milton Friedman once said something along the lines "You cannot have an open border and a welfare state." He was right.

Also, anyone who thinks this is common ought to take a look at the black-on-white crime stats. You'll see that the opposite occuring is far more common.
