    These are not socialist institutions, they’re capitalist institutions. You pay for their services and you get the services you were promised.

      Thats… the definition of a socialistic institute. Collective healthcare is socialistic, while for profit is capitalistic.

      By your definition, the USSR was capitalistic, since they paid for everything through their taxes.
