    How will this impact the medical tourism industry that Americans depend on for affordable healthcare?

      Don’t worry americans don’t use public healthcare in Mexico, otherwise they would actually understand the struggle to get it

      They just use private healthcare since it is catered to them while being cheaper compared to the US (I worked on medical tourism, all the marketing for these clinics is targeted to americans; most of them don’t even bother using Spanish on their ads)

      That’s one of the things uasians don’t understand. Universal health care doesn’t mean there are no private hospitals or practices. It means you have a choice, but you are covered no matter what.
