Healthcare can stay private as far as I’m concerned, but it certainly shouldn’t be provided by the employer. Just give me more cash and let me buy my own.

The profit motive definitely deforms the structure of medicine and medical services.
A guarantee for coverage from private health providers is the system in many countries and is far better than the system in the US, but even considered globally, the domination of healthcare, or development, manufacturing, and distribution of technology and services through private corporations has led to a much bleaker world than might be imagined if medicinal systems were structured and practiced as a public good emphasizing human life as having the highest value.
