The silence from the people opposed to scialized healthcare and supporters of the current system is deafening and very apparent they cannot answer and defend their stance.

I stopped reading a while ago, and btw grats on the new job, I bet you can pay your bills now and get insurance.
Anyhow, first there needs to be a pandemic, there isn't one. There could be one and there could be a meteor hitting the earth, both are scary, both will happen, we don't know when, so wondering who will pay for something thats not happened is a bit silly at this point, but also pretty obvious.
You would and will handle the pandemic like a natural disaster. Who pays for a natural disaster?
If its small enough insurance companies, if its too big for them, the government steps in, and its one of the few places where I will agree the government has a place in stepping in.
What that has to do with making all pay gigantic taxes so you can get 'free' health care because you lacked the forsight to get insurance is beyond me.
All socialized medicine will do is make a pandemic worse, because we will have less doctors, less staff, and less resources than we currently have in the US. If you don't know that part of the socialized systems, you need to do more homework.
