Poe's law? Can't really tell, with the internet these days. Things are so polarized that people talk from and to their tribe and the message is often understood to be obvious.

Anyways, in case you're serious: there is a famous thought experiment about healthcare: should a hospital administrator approve a complex and expensive treatment to save a 7 year old girl, with a 100% success probability? Or more to the point: is approving this a "good" act, or a "bad" act? The unintuitive answer is that it depends on the opportunity cost long term, and the math is far from obvious. The quick answer is often "not even wrong" - it simply ignores a lot of facts down the line. The same cash can be used very boringly to do maintenance or to buy a piece of life saving equipment.

And it gets very dirty very fast. The easy version is pay for the operation vs buy an MRI machine - in this case you can at least compare apples to apples, if you squint - an MRI machine also saves lives. But if the alternative is renovating a waiting room, you're really off the deep end. Because doing it one time it's an obvious decision: just save the life. And it's not even bad as a general policy: have waiting rooms be a bit dusty, if this means spending more money on treatments. But... how much to cut, exactly? And then you have second order effects: throwing a moderate amount to waiting rooms can make them look a lot better, while having it linger in disrepair can make people actually avoid the hospital (if they can't even paint the walls, why would you trust them with your life?).

And all of this is assuming the hospital admin actually has mental bandwidth and latitude to make this decision. In practice, he's looking at the kid's mom when he has to turn her down because the operation money would pay for renovating a whole hospital wing. And the mom is an influencer with a large following.

This means having humans make such decisions, and even worse, it means a committee or a mob will make such decisions. Zero skin in the game, all vibes and feelings. Some girls will get saved, but I've seen how hospitals look in such a system, and it's not good.

To note: the US system may or may not be "democratized", but it managed to have exactly the same flaws - most decisions are taken by humans in a bureaucracy. The government simply wrote the rules then outsourced the bureaucracy and the blame to private corporations.
