What revolution would that have been? From my limited understanding universal healthcare emerged as a byproduct of the industislistation, when states where confronted with a fast growing population of poor citizens that flocked to the cities and needed caring for in some sense. Bismarck intruduced the first European Healthcare system with the goal of keeping workers alive and healthy.
So, to answer my own question, if anything then the industrial revolution (aka capitalism) gave us healthcare.
Somehow I don’t think that’s where you were going with your comment.
How do you think we got healthcare? By begging kings? No, we got it as result of revolution.
Well.
Russian and Chinese people having a revolution and scaring the bourgeoisie into compromise.

October revolution. It gave healthcare, 100% literacy and education in general. And by “in general” I also mean higher education, which America also lacks.
