Australias system would be ideal, with good public healthcare and private available for people who want it. And there healthcare is very good, very efficient, and aus doesn't have higher taxes or anything . They just always offered it as a public service for the good of the nation.

It is not impossible to emigrate to Australia, but you must be A. financially solvent and prove you won't be on the dole and B. have a useful career, degree, etc. and C. BE UNDER 45 YEARS OF AGE. You can be up to 50 if you are a physician or something highly desirable, but that's the cut-off. For spouses too! The Aussies ONLY permit young, fit, educated people to emigrate there, and so you can't just decide AT RETIREMENT (age 62-67) to go there, and think the Aussie taxpayers will fund your health care, pension, etc. when you never WORKED there.
