Literally, it's an important point that seems to be lost on many that believe if we just tax the top 10% (who pay 90% of total tax revenue) even more, we can fix all our problems. Every country with socialized healthcare requires every citizen to pay a significant tax to cover the cost. If people are not willing to pay for it, they shouldn't be advocating for it. But first they have to be educated on the reality of the cost. So yeah, stop saying free because many have no clue.
