I’m sure the doctors get paid. And I’m pretty certain the doctors aren’t homeless. In other countries, The healthcare system is socialized. So the local taxes pay for healthcare in a sense or the government allocates funding for healthcare. I was referring to healthcare being “free” for patients. Thus allowing people to access healthcare services. As an American, I understand the cost of healthcare is ridiculously unaffordable for entrepreneurs. It shouldn’t be that way. Entrepreneurs (including comedians) should be able to afford healthcare. The system is broken and should be fixed or replaced.

And those patients are taxpayers, so it's not free, it's commie. Yes, conventional "healcare" in the US has nothing to do with health, or care; and costs an insane amount. That was the point of my post.
