I'm saying that rationing is inevitable and our thinking about health care systems needs to account for that.
I understand there are utopian arguments for healthcare, but where is the demand to respond to them?
I am in no way condemning the individual response to this I'm just earnestly curious where this impulse comes from.
The sky is the limit with what humans can do, but under late stage capitalism, it boils down to the preferences of those who control the system, and nothing more.

We already have a centrally planned economy, but it's only for the wealthy.
I don't think these are contradictory concepts, nor does this do much to justify the objectively atrocious method we currently use to ration healthcare. Every dime of profit could have gone to healthcare—that's not rationing, that's just unnecessary and easily preventable cruelty.
