My conspiracy theory is it was designed this way over time so that people “needed” insurance (before it was required).

Not too much of a conspiracy theory.

What’s ironic (?) is that by mismanaging a scheme to get everyone on private insurance they’re really working towards socialized insurance. Which good or bad, there is no going away from once you have it.
