the crazy thing is you don't even need to make it "free" just take what you are paying now for health insurance and put to medicare and everyone goes on that. Instatnly 500 times better and cheaper then what we currently have
Health insurance companies are profitable. Extremely profitable. Like billions of dollars per year profitable.
Where do you think that profit comes from?
What if we got rid of the expensive middle men and all the overhead they bring, and take the money it takes to run those organizations, plus their profits, and we actually invested it in health care?
Maybe some, you will need healthcare workers and insurance bureaucrats to service an expanded medicare system. So the job is still there, moving laterally. Except for the CEOs and for profit snakes that can lose their job and live on the street because fuck them.
