They're funded by Federal, State, and Local government as well as philanthropic donations.
So basically a centralized healthcare solution which turns away more poor or uninsured than they help. A commendable service, but not even close to the effectiveness and mercy of universal healthcare.
As I said, the system is not perfect and it needs to be improved. And it is better than Canada telling people to choose euthanasia because the government doesn't want to pay for their care, or when the UK denied care to a little girl, and then refused to let her leave the country to get healthcare elsewhere. They don't provide universal healthcare either, despite their claims.
It's centralized government operated healthcare, you're just advocating for more centralized healthcare.
How? I never said we abolish hospitals run by charities or religious organizations. You can have a government-run healthcare system run alongside charities and religious organizations. I don't think hospitals should be for profit, though. But the government does not have to be your only choice.
