Ah yes, the go fund me healthcare method, one of the main defects of the American medical system. If only there were some way to just take a little bit of money from everyone's paycheck and put it towards covering the cost of healthcare for literally everyone. "This naive take that everything should be free" like universal, tax funded, and not for profit healthcare systems just don't exist; not to mention they function better because people are more likely to go to the doctor regularly and catch health problems earlier which makes them significantly cheaper and easier to treat. Obviously these guys are saying that EVERYTHING should be free, and definitely not that extortion by price gouging the things people literally need to survive is wrong. It must suck to have to come up with flawed arguments to defend a system that generates a demonstrably worse outcome. Can't be one of those radicals who think taxes should go to social services instead just to the military industrial complex.

No universal care system anywhere in the world covers long term care for illegal aliens.
