Why should there be any profit in healthcare.

Why should it be illegal to help people for profit? That is what doctors do, they profit a lot when they help people, they could live on much smaller salaries than they currently have but of course market economics makes it so we want to pay doctors higher salaries than they really need.

Why should someone sell food for a profit? We literally DIE within DAYS of we can't get food!

You see the issue here right?

Now.. who pays is the question. Imo it must be the state, because otherwise there are too many perverse incentives.
