    I have had that conversation with Americans on social media. I tried explaining to them paying a private insurance company does actually pay for other peoples healthcare, and that it is not banking money for your own care. They couldn’t grasp the idea, and couldn’t understand how a single system ( that is government funded ) ends up providing cheaper insurance because there is no profit and everyone pays into it.

    Lack of critical thinking for many Americans.
