Across the Atlantic ocean, Britain is having an election and the US healthcare system is playing an outsized role in it.
More specifically, the UK Labour Party is warning voters that American healthcare companies are working with President Trump to bring US-style healthcare to the UK.
The US healthcare system is seen as so outrageous and expensive that the campaign message seems to be working.
Meanwhile, this eye-opening video shows Britons just how expensive healthcare really is in America.
Ambulance call out? $2,500. Childbirth? $30,000.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez even tweeted in response to the video on Tuesday night:
To our friends in the UK: please cherish, protect, & continue investing in your healthcare system!
Once Big Pharma & special interests get their hands on it, it could take generations to regain.Millions of people in the US are fighting to have a system half as good as the NHS.
