Data Is Beautiful

Sorry for late reply, but let's take a look at some real world examples.

Today we have three health care models in developed nations: a cartel system founded, funded and protected by the US government; public health care in the UK and private free market health care with consumer protections in Germany.

I believe that we all can agree that cartel system is a big fucking no for every sane person. So we can focus on health care workers in the UK and Germany.

If you check British news for the last decade, you will see that doctors, nurses and support staff are on strikes all over UK pretty much every day. At least every week during "good" times. At the same time doctors, nurses and support staff in Germany usually strike once a year, maybe twice post pandemic. Why is that?

The issue is that if you work for NHS in the UK and the government refuses to give you a pay rise and forces you to work unpaid overtime hours you, as an NHS worker you only have one option - strike. If you work in a free market environment in the Germany, then you have at least one more alternative - pack your shit, put a resignation letter on the desk of your boss and go work for a different health care provider. Nationalised system robs workers of their right to participate in a free market and seek better opportunities.
