People seem to regard it as an either/or situation - imho, it's not binary, it's fuzzy.
Health bills are the biggest cause of
bankruptcy (57.1%) in the US of A - that is not a good model; however, neither is just pumping more and more money into an already inefficient existing model.
That healthcare is free at the point of access is the place to start from, and then try work out how that can be best done in a world with diminishing financial resources.

I'd say that if someone is choosing that, there's something mentally wrong with 'em. In which case, they'll probably need disability anyway.

Or they could just be bone-idle, or not share the same work ethic as you - there are other options....
