Safety Net

More on how other successful nations handle health care.  Emphasis on the safety net that provides a foundation for citizens to succeed. Something which is missing in our society. And why is it missing? Is it the old American spirit gone awry? The wealthy who may desire high unemployment and a poorly educated workforce in order to keep their costs down? A severely dysfunctional government?
I saw a government official was being interviewed from Indonesia recently and his country emphasized full employment, free health care, and free education for all it's citizens and their economy is booming.
