You just don't get it
Speaking of only public hospitals:
The way the old system use to work. A person winds up in the ER, and he spends 5 days there, he is looking at a bill around 40,000 dollars. If he doesn't have insurance, you know who pays for him? You know what this guy does? Luckily the hospital is happy to tell him what he has to do to pay them back, and they have people there who specialize in getting you to the right place to help pay for this 40,000 dollar bill. In no time, the government is paying this 40,000 dollar bill. And who gives the government the money to pay this bill, you do. So now you are sitting here on a thread trying to justify that now you know it is getting taken out of your pocket, when it was being taken out of your pocket all along. Wait until you find out, that you paid twice as much as you should have on your taxes, you might end up learning about that 5 years from now.
