Yes, that's a huge part of the problem right there. If I'm healthy and work hard to be healthy, I have zero interest in paying for someone else's health problems. I have my own family to feed and we're talking about massive amounts of money that I get no direct benefit from.

But because we're both already here, and you seem to care a lot about money, maybe we should talk about money? Do you like living in a city, country, state with high GDP? This can improve the price of goods locally as your country has a stronger bargaining position in international trade agreements. This means higher paying jobs are available because bigger companies are willing to play ball to set up shop locally. The health of the general population is tied directly to GDP. Healthier population, better GDP. If you like $$$, support universal healthcare. It's a good long term investment.
