It's pretty good. However 15,000,000 US citizens cannot afford to visit a doctor and experience your 'greatest health care in the world' in 'the greatest country in the world' because somehow, in spite of the astounding and never ending greatness, those Americans slipped through the cracks. That's the issue and "the greatest government in the world" wants to make sure every American may visit a doctor whenever needed by providing insurance for all while not providing health care, which will remain 'the greatest health care system the world has ever known').
