The overwhelming majority of Americans have health insurance which (at least theoretically) covers most of their health care costs.
The overwhelming majority of Americans have health insurance which (at least theoretically) covers most of their health care costs. Way too many (many millions) have no insurance or inadequate insurance, but that's a problem we need to fix, not a description of the country as a whole. The problem for most Americans is that what is not covered by insurance is still too expensive for them, but that's a subtly different problem than "no socialized healthcare => everyone has to pay out of pocket for any healthcare they receive"
