> health care is a scarce good.

It's true that every health care system rations care. The difference is that a universal system rations based on medical need (triage) whereas a market system rations based on ability to pay.

This is not true.

Your ideal universal system may ration on medical need. There might even be one in existence that does so...

...but I really doubt it.
