The cost is too high! The only option is single payer health insurance, but it will cost the same. And, since no good jobs are around and you are totally dependent on the government, we are opening government housing for the masses. Walls will enclose the housing complexes, but citizens will be free to roam within the walls. Everyone will be happy with their daily ration of “soma” and soylent green. How could anyone reject such a wonderful future? Of course we in the government will make sacrifices and live outside the compounds, existing only on natural foods and the hard work of subjects - I mean fellow citizens.
And there won't be any doctors to treat you. They're all going to move to Costa Rica.
