Because a government that does healthcare is socialism that that's considered inherently evil by many.
And you're right: the healthcare system is absolutely insane.
If you can afford it (like I do), it's obviously world class in its medical abilities, but it's a disaster in terms of administrative overhead and its inability to serve the general population.
- jacquesm 7y agoThe funny thing is that a government doing healthcare is not socialism at all. It's just good stewardship over something that is too much of a temptation for the capitalists to handle properly because 'life is priceless'.
