The goal of the French healthcare system is to give everyone access to affordable, quality healthcare. The goal of the U.S. healthcare system is to make a small number of CEOs fabulously rich. Both systems have been very successful in achieving their goals.
France, UK, and Canda all use Socialized Medical Practices. It sucks… For Example…. Canada (except Quebec) has a 22 Month wait for a simple MRI. Most countires that have government run socialized health care stops giving treatment to the elderly.
The United States Constitution states you have the right live free and prosper and to pursuit happiness. It does not state you have the right to free health care, a car with a full gas tank and a house with a low mortgage and if you can’t pay it off your neighbor will..
France has the best healthcare system in the world.

France isn’t socialist, the Americans call the government socialist because it’s "less" capitalist than the USA, where there is an ultra-capitalism. France is a capitalist country with a conservative president. The Socialist Party (wich is socialist only in the name) lost the elections.
Helping people in need of medical care is not a bad thing ! In the USA, unless you have money it’s almost impossible to go to the hospital.

Seems the French live longer despite drinking and smoking more. The difference is having a quality medical service for all ?

In America you pay for your own health. In France you pay for your neighbors health.
