Trump’s unclear health care overhaul plans are entering a polarized environment where Americans remain split on private versus government-run systems.
I want health insurance from a private company of MY choice. I don’t want to choose my job based on what health insurance they provide. Right now nobody reports to me - there is no incentive anywhere for me.
So that still doesn’t tell me why you don’t want universal healthcare…
Because I believe in the free market. But what we means I’m not actually in the market and so the free market isn’t serving me.
But private health insurance can coexist with universal healthcare
Maybe, but generally universal has subsidies and so private cannot compete. Or universal has limits on coverage thus making poor who really need help unable to get good care
That second sentence isn’t true
Why would someone in a universal system get prikate insurance anyway
