You wouldn't need that much for free healthcare. Remember people already pay a ton for healthcare. You'd just repackage those payments into taxes for free universal healthcare and then the government would have to pay the difference.

This word “free” you keep using.... I’m not sure it means what you think it means?

This point you're making is pretty pedantic considering the OP clearly recognizes that funding for universal healthcare comes from somewhere, they say as much themselves.

"Free" as in "free at the point of use" is a well-understood concept
