The thing you are missing is that there is 35-40% of workers that do not have insurance that can pay for it through a tax system. Maybe the company they work for couldn't afford it, maybe they started a new job and won't be eligible for 3-6 months, self-employed, laid off, whatever. What universal hc does is get those people to pay into the system so that corporations can stop picking up the extra burden.
I holding out that McCain will come around on this one...
