    I always dislike this take because it pretends the US doesn’t have this exact issue. I’ve known people with less than ideal insurance who had very few doctors to pick from in-network and would take months to get an appointment.

    Long wait times still happens in the US. Just like it can happen in public healthcare.

      That’s fair, I’m not from the US, and when talking about private healthcare I’m thinking of my own experiences, paying out of my pocket.
