A minority? Howso? Does that mean most people are uninsured? Or just that the majority of insurance payments go to less than 50% of people? Or…?
Just hadn’t heard that one before, so curious about details.
Public healthcare insurance covers about a third of the population, the rest are either uninsured or covered by private insurance.
Medicare only exists to cover the most expensive patients who require the most care, so that we can support a massive private insurance industry, and to ensure that industry remains profitable.
Anyone who denies that this system exists to explicitly elevate one class of people over another whom are exploited is living in a fantasy world
Ah, I assumed you meant the US in general spends the most, including for public and private.
Let me repeat what I said.
The US Government spends the most PER TOTAL CAPITA (that is $/330 million citizens) and that money only insures a monitory of citizens, a big chunk of the population ALSO spends money for private coverage OVER the share of their taxes that goes to pay for public coverage.
The US government spends 12k * 330 million citizens for public health coverage to cover about a third of those citizens, in Canada it’s about 6k * 40 million citizens that we spend to cover everyone!
