Perhaps 8 ball is under the impression that other jurisdictions haven't tested this out, and we can use them as evidence for how this would go here.

Private health care costs more for everyone, leads to moderately better outcomes for the rich, bankruptcy for the middle class, and worse outcomes for the poor to start to choose rationing over spending. It isn't a body of water we need to dip our toe any deeper into .
