    Because you can only implement universal healthcare through violence/theft. Doctors need a motivation to work, right? So you either

    • Force people to pay tax under threat of violence or find some other way to steal money.
    • Force doctors to work under threat of violence.

      There’s a legal obligation to provide defense lawyers to defendants and it obviously isnt done by holding lawyers at gunpoint. The “force doctors to work under threat of violence” argument is so bad faith and imaginary you might as well have just posted “I will make up fake reasons to object to this”

      real markets need choice and transparency to operate and there’s no way to have those things in emergency care.

      Realistically, universal healthcare doesn’t intrude on doctors it intrudes on insurance companies.

        Yes, it’s covered by the first point of my post.

        Force people to pay tax under threat of violence or find some other way to steal money.

      Potentially, cooperatively run hospitals could fill in the space between public and private healthcare.

        The reasoning is nonsensical and requires several baseless leaps of logic to even begin with, of course it will get downvoted. OP’s kinda the confused one here, they should have expected bad faith arguments in response to this post if it wasn’t just bait, but hopefully they’ve learned what American Libertarianism is actually like now.

        I’m used to it, thankfully downvotes don’t change anything :)
