    Some right-wing ideological people think that U.S. has a privatised free market healthcare system, you get great quality if you pay for it, if you can't then tough luck, but nobody is obliged to pay taxes for another guy's healthcare.

    I could almost respect that argument. It's ideologically consistent. But nah, Americans pay massive tax for healthcare, they just don't receive care in return.
