Republicanism. Nixon, Reagan, Bush I,II. Could have had world leading single-payer economy of scale, efficiency & performance as early as 1971 except blinded by greed & petty anti-collaborative political venom.
healthcare has been one of the goals of progressives since 1912
Sigh. ‘Good to have goals. ‘Better to achieve them. Ideals need to be communicated thru vision & supported by strength & unity. “United we stand, ...”. Good luck, your neighbor 
Ronald Fucking Reagan happened.
I believe it's called Ronald Reagan.
"Greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right. Greed works." (Gekko, 1987). That is what happened to healthcare in the '80s. And now there is a "president" cut from this cloth. #illegitimatepresident #corruptadministration
Reagan?
I can at least tell you something from a Health Care provider perspective. I have not had ONE raise in payment from ONE Major Medical Insurance company since 2007. Many have reduced payments to Providers. The money is going somewhere. Insurance companies are self sustaining.
Reagan happened, case closed. Welcome to the deep, deep hole called conservative utopia.
Reagan and Thatcher bought fully into Ayn Rand fantasy. All of the distortions from wealth inequity to real wage stagnation to public education investment declines to negative political ads started then. We got the Kochs, Mercers, Adelson and, now, Trumps.

90s saw pharma advertising - that had to contribute
The general reduction in the quality of life in America. That started with Reagan.
The other countries have a soul.
