i got into a debate with my dad yesterday about the efficacy of universal healthcare and i realized i dont have any sources to back up my beliefs. he told me using taxes to pay for healthcare wouldnt work out in the long run because, and jsyk i have super bad memory, it wouldn't be able to keep up with the cost of machinery and medications(?) either that or he said something about how “nobody will want to work in healthcare/build hospitals if they arent going to net a profit”. and i didnt really have a good rebuttal.
i try to avoid debating my parents on this topic for my own mental sanity but it would be nice to read up on this just for my own knowledge.
TIA!
