    Just making a note that this:

    From the point of view of a society, it’s best for everybody to have access to treatment, and for everybody to kick in a little to a pool to pay for that treatment.

    Is 100% compatible with capitalism. Socialism is not when the government collects taxes and does things.

      I just want to make sure I understand that you’re on the record for being in favor of single payer healthcare? Because your other posts seem to suggest you’d be against government “interference” with the market

      In theory, sure, it’s compatible with capitalism. In practice, unless the government forces young healthy people to pay into the pool, they won’t.
