Things like universal health care will become non issues when the country evolves from being a collective of economic interests with identity rooted purely in individual wealth and status to a country with a sense of collective identity that sees no conflict in having everyone's back and building a healthy educated society.
Individual excellence is as important as common structures and a collective sense of purpose and direction, no one achieves anything in a vacuum and one can't simply negate the other.
Collectivism is not about getting everyone down but raising everyone up at least to a basic acceptable standard and level of opportunities, so that anyone with the skills and talent can soar and not just those with privileged upbringing and backgrounds.
