Unfortunately, this is the level of discourse for many people when they talk about "universal healthcare." This is completely disconnected with reality. Everyone has access to "free, fair, impartial, and unconditional access to all of the healthcare goods and services employed by the state..." How, exactly, does that work in practice? If there is only one neurosurgeon in a town, how does everyone get "free, fair, impartial, and unconditional access" to that neurosurgeon? If that neurosurgeon is booked out for two months, what happens to the patient who shows up with a new brain tumor? How do you distribute things like primary care vitis, MRIs, psychiatry appointments, physical therapy? All of those resources are limited, so somebody must ration them. All those things require money, so none of them can be free. Many of those people probably don't want to be employed by the government, so what do you propose be done if they refuse to be "employed by the state for such purposes?" Who decides who gets what healthcare services? Does that include illegal immigrants? Does it include gender affirming care? What if the government payment isn't enough to keep doctors seeing patients in the government program? Do you compel them somehow? Most importantly: who do you put in charge of rationing scarce resources?
