A better comparison would be if the old doctor wouldn’t perform the surgery himself, but a team of highly skilled, younger doctors.
Extreme politicians having more leverage, in situations where the lead of the majoritiy party is very thin, is actually very common in most democracies.

Given the same conditions, some people have more obstacles put in their way than others.
Saying „I can look after myself“ from a position of privilege is easy.

And yes: it can make you miserable. Especially when egoistic people keep adding those obstacles again.

Congratz, you’re the perfect example of a centrist 👍
Leftist: „I‘m miserable, because minorities are treated like shit, we still don’t have universal healthcare and we are at the brink of a fascist takeover.“

You (very intelligent): I can’t see any difference between you two.

No, they socialize the risk of becoming ill.
Are privatised health insurances in the USA shit right now?
Sure.
But as a European with nationalised healthcare let me tell you: we also have (heavily regulated) health insurances.
The alternatives is: every health problem is a potential cause of financial ruin.
