Choice is important, so long as everybody can be adequately covered.

This is tricky, because like... healthcare isn't like.... I mean generally it's not something you choose to get involved in, like generally you need it because you're sick or injured, and like... There is kind of a problem with sick or injured rich people getting treated better than sick or injured poor people.

Like, it's all well and good to say "well, they're paying extra for it" and like, I get that, but should they really be able to?

This isn't like, paying extra for a nicer resturaunt and getting better food / service, this is saying like, poor people are more likely to die and thats maybe not super ethical.

Like, I'm strongly opposed to capitalism so like, that stuff is naturally pretty abhorrent to me, but even if you're fine with capitalism in general, it seems like it would be difficult to justify the specific case of healthcare because it's such a life or death thing in many cases.

Like, saying that "so long as everyone can be adequately covered" feels like a bit of a cop out. Like, if it's your life in question, surely the only thing that's adequete is "the best possible treatment we have" and everything else is inadequete?

Like that's that quote about like "The life of a single human being is worth a million times more than all the wealth of the richest man on earth"?
