It's not impossible to do socialized healthcare. It just comes with a price tag that most Americans aren't willing to pay, especially when their experience with it has been either dealing with the military medical system (great for active duty troops, sucky for dependents - at least they have their priorities straight) or with places like HCMC. Reading about systems like Canada and England doesn't make a lot of people wild about the prospect of switching to something like that either.
