Every 1st world country has had universalized healthcare (socialized/government provided medicine, covering 100% of the population).
America has been the notable exception.

Why has America not had 'Universalized Healthcare' like the other 1st world countries?
Because The Owners Of The Country Don't Want That

It is in the best interest of 'The American People' (The Masses, The Poor) for there to be 'Universalized Healthcare' of some sort.
It is in the best interest of Insurance Corporations, as well as Private Equity Firms That Own Hospitals, for there to *NOT* be Universalized Healthcare.
It just so happens to be the case that from 1990 - 2020, America has been a society where Insurance Corporations and Private Equity Firms
wield far greater power over determining laws and public policy
than 'The American People'.

Most of 'The American People' (70%) support 'Medicare For All' (or at least some version of universalized healthcare).

TLDR:
'The American People' want Universalized Healthcare (Medicare for All)
The Donor Class (Insurance Corporations) do not.
The Donor Class wields far more power over the US Government than 'The American People'
so Universalized Healthcare has not and WILL NOT happen.
