Healthcare is healthcare, there is good healthcare and bad healthcare, how it is funded doesn't affect people's health unless it affects the quality of the healthcare.
But you are using the word 'fund', the state is not like a normal business, it does not really fund anything, it violently takes from innocent people, then uses that money to bribe special interest groups into obedience.
And of course it makes a difference!!!
Violence makes everything shittier, If I violently force you to buy a healthcare plan from me, what kind of service do you think you will get?
If I lock a girl I am attracted to in my basement, I am not going to be buying hallmark cards and flowers for her any time soon. Obviously.
Whereas if I am operating voluntarily, and try to convince people to buy my healthcare product/service, obviously this will be a higher quality product/service, since I can not rely on violence to get my pay check, I need to impress people, and offer something of value to customers to make my money. Where there is violence, things turn to shit, I'm sure you understand this.
Oh great, so how do you explain countries with socialist healthcare having better health than the US of A?
Your analogy is flawed all around because you're implying that socialist healthcare somehow doesn't need to check their quality because everyone is forced to buy the product. Obviously that is not true because doctors don't work for free and they get paid pretty well so if you screw up someone else will take your place and of course there's always malpractice suits. And I'm quite sure most doctors practice voluntarily, as med school is competitive and no one is forced to enroll or serve as doctors.
