Healthcare is already optional. Anyone in the US can get it, it just cost a lot. It cost a lot, because if it's going to cost you a lot, your expensive to cover. This expense will be the same if your the government or a private insurer.
So either it will be a lot less expensive (only posable by tax subsidies, meaning your already paying for it), or the same number of people won't have insurance.

I think the #1 reason it cost so much, is because a lot of people don't have it. If your sick and you go to the hospital, you get treated. If 20% of the people at the hospital don't have insurance, the hospital needs to charge more for everyone to up there profit so they can cover those not paying.
If Kaz is right, and it's optional coverage, this won't reduce the number of people entering hospitals who don't have insurance, thus not solving the problem.

So in your country, everyone has insurance. If not, they get fined?
