      johnalmason Here is the difference. In countries like New Zealand and Denmark, everyone pays higher taxes, but the people ALWAYS see a return that benefits them personally. These higher taxes also provide maternity/paternity leave and a sense of security between jobs, etc. If we do this in the US, it would have to be thoroughly regulated because the money most likely would be used for something else and the people would never see it benefit them personally. The US is corrupt and wastes money. Yes, you might pay more while young, but when you are older you will use it. We are already partially doing it anyway, with so many people going to the ER for minor issues. Wouldn’t you also like to benefit?
