The lines are still long with private insurance, you’re not getting in for specialty procedures very quickly no matter what payment method you use. I say this as someone who does specialty neurodiagnostic procedures in the US. We don’t care if you can pay or you have this insurance or that, there’s a line everywhere and unless you’re coming in through the ED, you have to wait in it.
I’m not trying to start an argument or take away from your point, just trying to preempt the inevitable conservative arguments against universal healthcare.

Thank you. This is also an important point.
My comment was more of a thought experiment, since none of the things I listed actually require sacrificing the other.

Yeah, I fully understand, and I appreciate that. It’s always an important point to make!
