You’ll have to wait months to see a doctor!
My man, I live in a capitalist hellscape. That’s explicitly the reason why it takes forever to see a doctor. Care is secondary to extortion of maximum profit.

Corollary to this is the “I want to be able to choose my doctor” line. If there’s only one health insurance provider, then every doctor will have to accept it, ergo you get more choice in your doctor

Yeah I’ve seen a doctor like 3 times in my adult life maybe. The cynical turn of phrase people do is infuriating too “Healthcare plz” “Okay we’ll guarantee you have health insurance” [now force everyone to pay the companies that are partially responsible for fucking everything] I don’t want health insurance I want health care
