What if you have to choose between your health and your child’s going to college?

A healthcare system that’s not universal is so fucked up. It can’t be that it’s kept for people with money.

That $30 is money you wouldn’t have had in a country with universal healthcare. The tax has to come from somewhere.

You wouldn’t need the 30€ in the first place if you’ve had a universal health care… Of course the money has to come from somewhere. What if you got sick again? Or someone if your family got sick again? You’re fucked up.

The $30 all goes to the same bill FYI.

All that medical debt gets wrapped into a single bill. You pay $30x12x20 and it’s gone. It takes work to get there though.

And you missed the point of saying that $30 is money you wouldn’t have had if we enacted universal health care. It’s not going to come without everyone losing the equivalent of their premium in extra taxes anyway. The benefit is when people need to go extra times.
