Except when said healthcare is gated off for the protected class by cost or being and to work a certain type of job, that pool only helps those swimming in it. Here in the US ACA has done some to narrow that gap but it's still not enough. The proper model is everyone has a mandatory contribution % of their income above a poverty line. Then we see the pool truly helping those who cannot afford it and even those who can because care is standardized.
State-run Mandatory Health Insurance, that provides healthcare free of additional charges. *old Russian anthem intensifies*
Weird, I hear the anthems of nearly every other developed country in the world.
Well, true. It's not because russian healthcare so good, but because america is so... "special".
And nazis rolled out the highway system, but that's not a reason to dislike it.
Not true. Though the nazis certainly built a lot of additional Autobahnen to prepare for the war, they knew they would start. Fun fact: Wehrmacht logistics largely relied on horse-drawn carriages. The soviets got Studebaker trucks.
I don't follow.
