    Free medicine is nice, though. Not very high quality sometimes, but still better, than bankruptcy after ambulance ride.

    Free high school education is a good option too.

      Will you develop medicine for free? Will you do 8+ hour long surgeries for free? Will you teach children at school for free?

      Nothing is free, buddy. If sth appears to be free, it’s only because someone sponsors it.

        Yeah if I can’t get a yacht out of the deal why would I even bother trying to cure cancer? It makes no logical sense.

        Medicine development is almost completely done in Universities with tax money, pharma company budgets are almost completely marketing. So yes, we already do that
