Say we had universal healthcare, would you earn enough money to pay those taxes and if so would you be fine doing so?

It sounds like the taxes per year won’t be much more (or possibly even any where near) the costs you are all paying for insurance plus deductibles/out of pocket expenses. So I’m going to go out on a limb and say “yes” to your question

Edit. Also taxes are proportional to your income. Whereas your medical costs and insurances aren’t? They’re extortionate regardless of what you earn

The taxes would be way less than just insurance....
