it might be well to note that the form of universal healthcare Sanders supports is not the British system - where doctors are employees of the government and the government actually makes some healthcare decisions. what Sanders supports is a single payer system where the government more or less acts like an insurance broker, and decision making is left to doctors and patients.
so -- talking about the government forcing someone not to eat big macs and drink slurpees, or instituting death panels isn't really relevant.
