What currently stands in the way of achieving universal health care in the US? What steps need to be taken before the US can have universal health care?

This has helped make elected officials nervous about taking public positions on many domestic policy issues, especially health care. In addition, the enactment of large tax cuts has destroyed budget surpluses and much hope for expansion of health care coverage.
