you are forced to buy social insurance , you are forced to buy insurance to drive. you are forced to obey thousands of rules in order to make our nation and world a better place for all. many of those rules are directly detrimental to YOU personally , but beneficial to the greater public.
Your pretense that being required to have healthcare insurance is somehow strange or evil is driven by propaganda that you have been raised on. everyone else in the world that can afford public healthcare has it, because it is clearly the best option for the nation. it reduces the cost of healthcare, empowers the public and provides a level of fiscal security unknown to the majority of Americans.
we can chat about this all day long, but the truth is very simply. You are against full public healthcare only because you are the victim of long term propaganda intended to keep most americans working full time until they reach retirement age. Early retirement in the USA is for the rich and the disabled.
My grandmother, who doesn’t drive, is forced to pay for car insurance? Are you sure?
but it is still cheaper than WHATEVER you have now. so your fear mongering fails matey.
we pay 10k for the same service level you could get for 5K. (uk pays about 3.5-4K but i say 5K to avoid tiresome bs)
The UK system isn't something to be desired. Patients dying in hospital from thirst and women giving birth on the steps to the hospital because there is no room for them. Yeah that's a system to be desired.

and yet massive numbers of americans die in hospitals every year for the very same reasons. For every UK horror story we have one too.
UK pays about 3.5 K we pay over 10k. so just add another couple of K on top if you want the best of the best...
There are better systems than the UK. There are in-between systems like what Australia has.
Or like Germany, with its mix of public and private insurance, which they've had since the 1870's!
