I don't think many Americans in favor of universal healthcare think it's going to cost nothing. Of course, taxes will increase. But we already pay for private healthcare. Most of us via a payroll deduction.
We do as well. I have private coverage for things that OHIP doesn't cover like a private hospital room, massage, physio, and other therapies, eye glasses, dental, and prescription drugs. It's much, much cheaper than in the US because it is single payer and heavily regulated.
we not only pay for healthcare, compared to what the world pays, we pay for gold plated health care and get delivered garbage that bankrupts us.
