I don't live in the same country as you, for starters.

It's been shown, copious numbers of times, just how bloated the medical insurance industry is in the US. Give me my government-funded universal healthcare any day.

Sure, the private industry has some highlights, but it's a mess you guys have over there.

Congrats, I no longer live in the USA either, moved to government run healthcare a year and a half ago. The one time I went to the hospital the first question was “do you have additional private healthcare”.

The hospital stay was great, I needed an IV as they didn’t bother bringing me anything to drink and I was the lucky one as I did get a bed, others were sitting during their stay. This is an EU country.

You’re conflating the health insurance industry with the health industry.

The fact they are linked is the problem of course, but there’s nuance. Private enterprises run hospitals better than the government would be the argument.
