In the countries where healthcare has existed (and worked) for decades, there are additional taxes to alcohol, sugar, tobacco, petrol to cover for this.

And also yeah, and I have no problem whatsoever knowing that a small part of my salary goes towards saving the life of people who wouldn't be able to afford private healthcare. That's called empathy - and I wish that'd sink in as well.
