So do you feel that instituting some form of socialized or everyone is covered
medical care will result in a more healthy populace?

Having worked in practices in three areas (both urban and rural) where
individuals were receiving publicly funded dental care, I can tell you that
their health was generally poorer than that of the public as a whole.

There are many reasons that the label of "short-sighted" is appropriate to our
country (US), but I do not believe a failure to provide socialized medical care
is one of them.

Your mileage may vary.
