This is the thing that drives me crazy. Especially with those “I don’t want my money going to pay for the wrong kind of person’s healthcare” idiots. It already does. You already pay for that. Private healthcare is socialized healthcare except with some rich dumbass acting as a middleman so he can scrape a ton of money out while denying grandma that new hip she needs in the name of profits.

Just because you call it an “insurance fee” and pay more than if it was called a “tax” doesn’t somehow make it better.
