Secondly the introduction of a universal health care system to the United States could actually lessen the national debt of the U.S. It has been shown through 2010 statistics that "The U.S. spent $8,233 on health per person in 2010. Norway, the Netherlands and Switzerland are the next highest spenders, but in the same year, they all spent at least $3,000 less per person"(Urban-Klahn). These statistics show that the U.S compared to other nations with universal health care spends more on health care per person than these other nations. The money saved per person on health care could be used to improve the U.S economy and reduce the national debt. The cost of current U.S healthcare also has an impact in that, "given the absence of universal coverage, people in the U.S. go without needed health care because of cost more than people do in other countries.(Newman). The cost of health care is making it difficult for U.S citizens who have economical issues to participate in their accessibility to proper health coverage. With the integration of universal health care the cost of coverage would be lowered allowing for more citizens to pay and improve the U.S economy.
