I think we're saying the same thing. Most people don't necessarily [functionally] have the option (or at least don't think they do, there are sometimes ways through.)

But, public hospitals with low or no cost care exist in some of these places, and from my observation, I do currently think it's a contributing factor to why small businesses are more likely to exist. But, it's only one knob to turn.

I live in canada with free health care. People are always complaining about how we are much less entrepreneurial than our southern neighbours.

Maybe free health care would help, but i think its kind of minor compared to other factors.
