Oh you're one of them. Real relation that you're providing everyone there.
Except it's actually not strictly speaking true, yeah everyone pays some taxes and some of those taxes go to healthcare but it's not a separate tax, it's just part of the tax everyone pays. Some of it goes to healthcare, but some of it goes to road maintenance, some the police. It's all just in a big lump of tax.
It's not as if your tax rate goes up depending on your health. You pay the same amount of tax regardless of your current medical status so to say you pay for health with tax is a rather disingenuous.
