A social healthcare system relies on taxes generated by the highest percentile of earners. So in the UK for example: *"Around 60 per cent of income tax revenue comes from the top 10 per cent of earners, and 30 per cent from the top 1 per cent".*
If you allow the very richest to act in their own best financial interest and opt out of a service they'll likely never use themselves, the you're left with increasing taxes on lower income earners who will never realistically be able to generate enough revenue to support a free healthcare system.
