What’s so bad about universal healthcare?

Call me stupid.  Call me blond.  Call me politically challenged or whatever you prefer - but I can’t for the life of me figure out what’s so wrong with the idea of having a government ran healthcare.

Isn’t medicaid and medicare government ran?

Don’t our government officials have healthcare that’s overseen by the federal employees?

If it’s easy enough to provide healthcare to the very poor, the older people and the government employees - what’s so wrong with providing it to every U.S. citizen?

Or is it just the fear of pissing off lobbyists and losing that extra bit of income from our government officials pimping themselves out?

I just don’t get it!
