It has absolutely nothing to do with subsidization by Americans. It&#x27;s simply that universal health care allows patients to be fairly represented as consumers via insurance agencies.<p>The American health care system is a perfect example of what happens, if you confuse lack of government regulation with free markets. The resulting oligopoly and in some areas monopolys cause prices to increase massively, especially given the unique traits demand acquires when demand is literally wanting to survive. That&#x27;s just basic economics and trivially easy to explain.
