It's amazing how many people disagree with that statement - even on the left. They want to keep the profit in health care and are fighting desperately to scuttle any talk of Medicare for all bills. They're happy with their employer plans and don't want to give them up - even for the greater good. The 'I've got mine' world view is too libertarian for me, I don't mind paying more taxes if everyone is covered.
