Because, if they have to spend 80% of premiums of actual healthcare, there STILL would be a 20% cap on profit and overhead costs that drive profit.

Medicare for All would be closer to 3% overheard, and that's what we've needed all along...

MEDICARE FOR ALL.... SINGLE PAYER IS WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS!
