>Do you know how the european and canadian plans “work”?

Actually, yes. They suck.

I guarantee you that it will simply be financed by a tax on employers

First you cannot “guarantee” anything, and second, a tax on employers is a mandate.

You can call it anything you like, but when employers have to pay, the employess make less and the goods and services cost more.
There is zero way around that.

Are you trying to convince of something, or do you have a point?

I think we agree on the issue - I simply believe it is inevitable because I am not in a bearhug government or employer group plan - so I know how out-of-touch folks who simply say “I’m against socialized medicine, but I don’t pay for my own insurance” are on the issue.

I’m against it too, but you simply have no idea how inevitable it is, I do. Who pays for your insurance - based on your swagger on the issue, I’m guessing it’s not you.
