Single-payer healthcare is a system where every citizen pays the government to provide core healthcare services for all residents. Under this system the government may provide the care themselves or pay a private healthcare provider to do so. In a single-payer system all residents receive healthcare regardless of age, income or health status. Countries with single-payer healthcare systems include the U.K., Canada, Taiwan, Israel, France, Belarus, Russia and Ukraine.

A one-size-fits-all system is never good for society. People take care of themselves and their health in different ways. We should have universal healthcare to help those who are disadvantaged, but at the same time, allow people to make their own medical and healthcare decisions
