$8k deductible might be reasonable if $250k bills are the norm. It is not spoken out loud a lot (more during COVID), but the people who are against universal healthcare are likely pro high birth rate and survival of the fittest (unless they have money, of course).

You need a high birthrate to continue to suppress wages, don't forget about that! Once to population curve starts to flatten out, I do not see private insure prices going down as they will not be able to let go of the profit hence driving prices up higher.
