Meh free healthcare is in our constitution, just like many other countries in Europe. The only place experiencing this problem to this degree is the United States. It’s not a capitalist problem at all.

some friendly advice, maybe don’t cite your explicitly socialist constitution when explaining that capitalism isn’t ackshually the problem.

This is why we need better education in the US.
Also, this is why we can’t have healthcare. We don’t know why we deserve it.
I was talking to a person once about single-payer Canadian healthcare. And she said, but what if someone doesn’t work? Should they still get it?
[I mean, yes.]
I said, how come you don’t ask that question about cops and firefighters? You don’t say, well if someone doesn’t work, should the firefighter’s come to their house if there is a fire? We have single-payer police insurance and single-payer firefighter insurance.
But after the fire, you’re on your own!
America! Fuck, yeah.

Socialism in EU may not have the meaning you think it has, it’s very distinct from communism. It can be called social democracy, link Bernie Sanders, maybe. For example, the previous French president François was from the French Socialist Party and the current primer minister of Spain is from the Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party. In this case, socialism means accepting the free market capitalism for the efficiency it may bring to the economy, but with good regulation and, mainly what the USA lack, a good social safety net (free healthcare, free education etc…).
