....So it can only be for the rich.
Insurance is simple - you have a group pool their risk together so that everyone's protected.
Yet, when we try to discuss making an insurance pool the size of the country, for everyone, people like you go all "not a right".
When I see "not a right", I read into it as "Fuck you I got mine".. when there is plenty to go around for everyone.

Citation needed: prices are NOT linked to how much thing is, but how much the market will bear. Stating falsehoods to cover up your intent is disgusting. We know how c(r)apitalism works. We're rejecting that. Tried it, didn't work. Reiterating for better.
> private charity/need-sharing would take the place of insurance.
Uh huh. So non-christians need not apply? I know how this plays out... This is a citizenry issue, for the whole country. And you end up wanting to make it a fractured "small group" issue. People fall in cracks, and you don't care. Some "mythical" group will fix it.
