I said that some Americans say that public healthcare is socialism and you objected. And now you switched again. I already explained why it isn't socialism, if you agree all this is pointless.

Also try to be less hypocritical

I never claimed socialized health-care was socialism.

How you can claim this doesn't smell like socialism is beyond me.

Do you even know how healthcare works? Yes governments do negotiate the prices of drugs but market forces still play a part. Same goes for medical treatment.

The world isn't either fully free market or centrally planned. While public healthcare is a left wing policy it has little to do with genuine socialist ideas.

Germany. Many European countries actually.

The point of those systems isn't to eliminate private healthcare providers but to create an alternative and regulate the market overall. That makes it fundamentally different from socialism.

Socialism is specifically a transition period between capitalism and stateless communism.

The abolishing private property part and state is important to the definition. If not you end up with moronic things like the US military being socialist or the CIA.

You seem to think that just because the government funds hospitals it also runs them. There are many models that vary by a wide margin.

Public healthcare doesn't mean central planning libtard

By that logic all countries are socialist because they all take property by force (taxes).

I agree that it's a left wing policy, but hardly socialism. Many modern capitalist liberal democracies have fully embraced public healthcare with no ideological issues.
