You’re right about taxes!
Medical treatment in Germany, however, is free not because of taxes. It’s because health insurance is mandatory for most of the population, and not run by private for-profit companies but on a solidarity principle.
All of us working people have to pay a substantial part of our income into it. No choice. And that’s a good thing. One car accident or cancer diagnosis could ruin one otherwise. No healthy community can want that.
