Yeah I agree, but we dont really live in that society anymore. All attempts at reform are sidelined and corporate interests are put over our own constantly. I don't like it either, but people have a breaking point and they can only take so much. If we had a stronger aca that wasn't gutted by industry maybe there wouldn't have been motive here.
Unfortunately, the ACA was gutted before it was signed. While it reduced the number of uninsured (by a lot), it is ultimately just another way public money could be funneled into these insurance companies.
