I personally never had a problem with the idea of completely socialized healthcare, although I’ve always found the argument of “healthcare is a human right” kind of weird. Why is it a human right? A better argument would be the same as the argument made for giving healthcare to illegals: a cost containment model. Meaning, if people don’t have healthcare to be taking care of the small things, then they let the small things become big things and then reactionary healthcare costs are typically exponentially higher than maintenance costs
The problem with universal healthcare has always been how to fund it in the USA. I’ve seen some rosy projections offered but I’m still extremely skeptical
