Its a quesiton of priorities.
I guess for some people, the supreme laws of the land as found in constitutions of the several states and the United States is a high priority. For mostly everyone else, "**** the law" except apparently all subordinate law, which is quite fine. We'll just do what we want, because it makes us feel good, no biggie, doesn't matter if some people have to suffer infringement to their life, liberty, or property on the way as long as we can feel good about something related.
it's OK if the kids suffer or die due lack of medical accessibility?
What is your counter-proposition? Force (i.e. enslave) people to become doctors and insurers? Maintain a contingency slavery where you're only forced to do what everyone else wants if you become either a doctor or an insurer?
You get the life you're dealt no matter who you are and you have to work with others to make the best of it. But asking your government to enslave people to make the best of it seems immoral from the start.
Someone would probably offer health care for lower prices and at different tiers of service if the government didn't create monopolies through regulatory barriers. But that's alright, we can just make more laws to fix those other laws which were probably illegal in the first place, rather than returning to conforming to the precipice for this nation and its several states.
Here's one way to prevent a child from dying because of not having universal enslave-someone health insurance: don't have one. But that's just one idea. Everyone has this idea that in the United States there would be no private sector takeover of the public good if we just took the honest and immediate step of complying with our constitutions and cutting away the huge swaths of illegal law that impair our liberties and purses. The fact is that there would be markets in the public good, and people would ask for certain things to be fulfilled, and so people would fulfill them. I have no idea why everyone thinks we need an overbearing and onerous government just to have any single good thing.
Less theft, more consensual contract plz. If we got into the habit of saying no when we can, and yes when we want, the foundation for all of the monopolies created by regulatory barriers that created a perceived need for federal universal health care would have never existed.
people value season box football tickets at 10s of thousands of dollars but want to stiff those agents involved in health care, so we're all kinda at fault (and across generations) for misvaluing things first, and then demanding regulation following to fix the error of our ways rather than just acting differnetly
