Terrific point! And your rant reinforces my rant. The politicians aren’t even honest enough to call ‘national health insurance’ by your much more accurate term ‘universal coverage’.

Your point: Coverage and cost is exactly the same for everyone, regardless of risk. And rates can no longer be controlled through risk mitigation or provider incentives; coverage is mandated through a process driven by politics rather than actuarial data.

Seems right on to me. And we see the results in Canada and Britain.
