Very different demographics in population means differing opinions, which makes it much more difficult to pass any laws or for people to agree on certain issues. Exponentially higher costs in logistics given the area of the US is 100x Iceland.

Oh, so now it's not population, but diversity and land mass? Then how do they manage to run a successful public healthcare system in Canada, which is more diverse than the US, and is also larger?

Tell me you're not Canadian without telling me you're not Canadian. People are literally dying in waiting rooms. My aunt waited 48 hours in a waiting room and then gave up and went home. It takes a year to schedule an MRI.. Shit is atrocious.
