Unless you want a system where medical emergencies are turned away at the hospital door.

A lot of people definitely want that, especially if it’s brown people or LGBT+ people having the emergencies.

That still doesn’t make sense for people who aren’t billionaires, though … if it’s zero sum, billionaires are even more problematic than they already are.

Propaganda works.

Arguments I hear are usually something along the lines of “it’s going to destroy the economy”, “it destroys jobs”, “I’m rich and they’ll tax me a lot” (said by people who aren’t actually rich). Also, confusing social democracy (Germany, Nordic countries) with what the Soviet Union and China were doing.
