my grandpa died because of the inadequacy of my country's public healthcare system. i'm still not gonna advocate for the privatization of healthcare, because yes, private healthcare exists too, guess what, it doesn't apply to everyone (and didn't happen to apply to my grandpa). that's quite literally the point of making it private and paywalled, if you don't or can't pay up, you're shit out of luck.

universal healthcare isn't perfect, but it's still better to provide it than to not do so. especially since if you know how the free market works, you should also know that if either supply or demand is inflexible that leads to market exploitation, and demand is static without a government baseline. if people receive universal healthcare, then private options can still exist, but using them is an option, not an imperative, and therefore the market can actually do its thing.

same goes for other issues like housing. why do you think the prices are skyrocketing? you can say no to, idk, a tv, and just watch shit on your phone instead, so tv prices are sane, but if you say no to housing means you'll live on the street. some people do try that, which is why van life is so frickin popular lately, but for the most part, the demand for housing is the same no matter what the supply side does, so it will just skyrocket. the invisible hand can't work if you tie one of the hands.
