text: “Is it the responsibility of the federal government to make sure all Americans have health-care coverage?” Eighty-five per cent of Democrats said yes, compared to 32 per cent of Republicans. Among Republican voters earning more than $75,000 [U.S.], only 18 per cent said yes. That pretty much tells you all you need to know."
  
  
  The top 50% of American wage earners have NO intention (what so ever) in helping the bottom 50% to pay for their healthcare needs.
  
  This is not only tied to healthcare, it is the same situation/phenomenon with education, infrastructure, or any other basic service (including water believe it or no).
  
  The United States has "evolved" into a wild-west completely self-absorbed/selfish society. Thus the millions of "gated" communities. Keep the "other" people out.............at all cost.
