A BMW dealership is free enterprise. They sell BMWs to people who want them, nobody needs one and thus can make a free decision on where to buy and how much to pay. If you go to Beverly Hills there are a lot of dealerships. If you go to Bismark, SD, there are next to none. If my neighbor buys a BMW or does not it has no effect on me.

Healthcare is an expense that can arrive without warning and you have no choice but to purchase it. If a drunk douchebag runs over my foot in a parking lot and takes off, what am I to do? Shop around? Negotiate one ambulance against another?

I need it now, I have no ability to make any decision as to what vendor I will choose and thus, not free enterprise. If my neighbor has no health care and comes over to borrow a cup of sugar and coughs on me, great now I have his strep throat or flu.

So in a country as wealthy as America every single person in the nation should have healthcare for all issue great and tiny and we should find a way to pay for it.
