Those things are a joke, have you ever been on Medicare? It’s terrible and are still strangled by private insurances at every turn.
A few years ago, it was calculated that moving to a single-payer healthcare system and abolishing private healthcare would, at worst, increase an individuals tax to like <$1000/yr
I have a fairly decent employer provided insurance and even then it’s still 500+ a MONTH. Before even factoring in other private insurance bullshit like copays and out of pockets and a myriad of other fees and gotchas, I’ll exceed that 1000 tax bill in like 2 months.
Even if you’re a selfish conservative asshole, it would save you so much money as well.
But sure, keep listening spouting the rich elite propaganda, you’re just a temporarily embarrassed billionaire after all.
