    People who push for private healthcare are either the type that could afford it or are the sheep following them.

    And the thing is, private healthcare is great for those who can afford it. Both specialists and PCPs are readily available for appointments in the US, and the quality of care is good!.. You’ll just end up bankrupt if your employer doesn’t provide good insurance.

    It’s fucked up, and it’s not equitable. But I understand why it’s appealing to the wealthy.
