Few would be willing to dish out for private coverage while they are receiving health care from government taxation. Would the private health industry perhaps dwindle down to a few big players and be forced to take a hit by improving coverage and care?
I’m well aware health care won’t be nationalized. I meant to indicate this is a hypothetical question.

      I guess that they will go out of business. By nationalized you mean Universal Health care? If you think its all that great then look again. I live in Canada and the wait lines to see a doctor or even in the emergency room are long. Very long.
