There isn& #39;t one reason. Many Americans feel like; the way to judge the value of something, a person, an endeavor, is by how much profit it makes. So a system that provides people healthcare, but doesn& #39;t make a few people billionaires, is a bad system.

Many Americans don& #39;t like that idea that their tax dollars go to help people not like them. If our tax dollars went to OUR healthcare, but not healthcare for *those people* they& #39;d be fine with it.
Many Americans feel like the only value a person has, is their labor. That& #39;s how you measure human worth; how much you can sell your labor for.
A system that provides a service, regardless of how much you sell your labor for, is therefore unfair and, many of them think, immoral

The problem is; Americans have been raised to this about this issue in a perverse way. They don& #39;t consciously think "but would this system produce billionaires?" But they DO consciously think "well only a private corporation can do this efficiently!"
Which is the same thing. The only thing corporations are efficient at is creating wealth for shareholders.
Americans don& #39;t trust anyone who says they want to help people. That& #39;s a scam. That& #39;s what Doctors and Lawyers say. People trying to scam you. A politician is a scam artist. A public servant is just a polite term for a politician.
So any government program designed to help people, must be a scam. Because no one really wants to do that.
But corporations make people *rich* and that is *good*. Therefore corporations should be in charge of health care.

"The Business of America...is Business." The purpose of America is to make a very small number of people obscenely wealthy. It is not to provide safety, security, or opportunity for its people.
