Government run care is different in one massive way: It's not a profit seeking entity.

Private insurance, even those run as non-profit, still turn a profit. Does the head of the DHS make 15 Million dollars in year? No? That's the average compensation for private insurance CEOs. Bernard Tyson CEO of non-profit Kaiser Permanente made 16 Million in 2017.[0]

Is that really "all the same"?

It also spreads the risk pool over an entire nation, rather than who happens to be insured by insurance corp A in state B.
