Germany has had national healthcare paid by their taxes since the 1870s under Bismarck, over 130 years ago! The rest of the industrialized world has national healthcare paid by their taxes which is why the US is last in life expectancy and infant mortality in the industrialized world. Half the personal bankruptcies in the US are due to inability to pay healthcare costs, and most of the bankrupt have medical insurance!

Here is Director Michael Moore's Health Care Proposal, from
http://www.michaelmoore.com/sicko/health-care-proposal/
1. Every resident of the United States must have free universal healthcare for life.
2. All health insurance companies must be abolished.
3. Pharmaceutical giants must be strictly regulated like public utilities.
THIS IS A BARE MINIMUM. We can add:
1. Healthcare must include dental care and all non-MD medical fields including but not limited to optometry, podiatry, acupuncture, herbal healing including medical marijuana, chiropractor, psychology, physical therapy, and the like.
2. All employees of health insurance companies should be paid to retrain to work for the government agencies that carry out our national healthcare plan, paid for with our tax dollars.
3. All drug companies should be nationalized, as should all privately owned "public" utilities, and they should be operated by the government with our tax dollars
4. What money is not currently available can be raised as follows:
(a) Transfer the entire military, CIA, prison and death penalty promotion budgets to the healthcare budget and abolish these 4 archaic fascist outrages.
(b) Tax the rich with the progressive income tax by raising taxes on those who make over $200,000 a year.
This should take care of all our medical needs many times over. The military budget alone would do it. After all, we are already paying a very high price with premiums, co-pays and direct pays and we get far less for our money than those with a national healthcare system paid for by the government so that when you walk into a medical, dental or medical-related facility, you pay NOTHING and receive top quality healthcare. We certainly have the resources, so let's act NOW!
