The fact that public healthcare probably won't happen is different from the argument that we should trust predatory insurance companies.

Plus you don't have to go to China for public health care. You could go to Canada or the UK, obviously. And they're capitalist as fuck. Although capitalism will likely get rid of their public healthcare eventually, they haven't succeeded yet.
