If you happen to be a judge, policeman, state trooper, then you can opt to get private insurance *instead* of socialized insurance. Everybody else must buy socialized insurance "or else" independently or their will to hire a separate plan.

I know, I'm totally against it except for non-covered issues such as teeth issues.
If you are a public servant, you should pay taxes as everyone.
BTW, I live up in the North, and if you are from Madrid... Madrid it's a damn disaster
because the right wing party destroyed it to put its private minions so everyone
has to get a private insurance. They are a damn mafia. At least our similarly idiots
of the Basque Nationalist Party are closely 'watched' so our healthcare doesn't go
to /dev/null.
And, again, I'm not a commie. I know pretty well how the Basque Healthcare works
and more than nationalistic I'm maximalistic. I can't change the whole Spain,
but if I can keep my region with some mininum of social rights, I want to keep them.
Then, I'm not anti-capitalist. You want a Macbook? A Xiaomi laptop? 10GB fiber?
Go for it, but on pandemics, vaccines and such, I don't want the Monopoly guys
playing with something that could cause the 2nd Black Plague.
If you want a capitalistic economy, well, FFS, you need healthy workers and...well...
clients. Dead and ill people don't move the wheel of economy at all...
