I don't argue against strawmen and none of this is true in practice. The only way you believe this is that you listen to the media and you've never been poor enough to have to work with that system. You've also obviously never had to deal with having something that nobody wants to cover. I also doubt very seriously you've checked into what's affordable vs what the actual coverage and deductibles are. People like you might look good on paper "we just want poor people to have access!" But when actual poor people explain to you how fucked up your solution actually is, people like you don't listen. You just keep hollering how government is the answer. The absolute worst thing anyone could have done was mandate the purchase of something. It empowered the big companies and stripped power from patients and doctors. There were and are far reaching effects of that that you clearly haven't bothered to hear.
