Healthcare capacity in the US is a function of your ability to pay for it. We contend with limited supply today, we just kick the limited supply to groups of people who by and large aren't posting on this website.
- omginternets 3y agoYes... I agree. I'm not sure what your point is?
- owenmarshall 3y agoWhen I've heard this argument advanced before, it's had the subtext that "limited capacity is not a problem today but becomes one in other contexts" I made the assumption that's what you were hinting at.
- omginternets 3y agoAh, I see. No, my point is rather that countries with public education/healthcare/etc have historically restricted access to these services in some reasonable way. For instance, you can only pursue one degree on the state's dime in France. Or, you can't access public healthcare if you are not a legal immigrant. Things like that.
