It always make me laugh how against healthcare Americans are. I can't help but wonder if it's just a stubbornness thing, like they just aren't willing to admit that other countries do something better than them

Half of the US citizens are brought up with the idea that giving something to the poor is a bad thing. Ironically the same half considers themselves predominantly Christian while the other half who wants an extension of social programs has a much higher percentage of atheists among them. It'd be funny if if it wasn't so sad.

I wouldn't want to live in a country which considers taxes, socialism and government regulation, which are all meant to protect its citizens, an inherently bad thing.

I'd like to know where your "half" statistic comes from. Because it is patently false. America is consistently one of, if not, the most generous countries in terms of charitable giving as well as foreign aid. 

Here, here, and America spends 50 billion in foreign aid outside of those private charitable endowments. 

The difference is we like to do it freely and not through the force of government fiat and sky high taxation.
