In the UK, we have a simple take on the US healthcare system as a for-profit, private system that fleeces its customers and fails the poor.
But here’s the secret: the US has its own ‘mini NHS’. Smaller than the UK’s system, but still a government funded, (mostly) publicly-run system that serves people according to their need. It’s called the Veterans Health Administration (VHA).
And Donald Trump wants to privatise it.
