No. No place on earth has free healthcare. However some do tax the shit out of the citizens to provide basically a BMV version of healthcare. Everything in the world that is government run has a higher cost and lower quality. Everything. In every country.

I think they're referring to the 55% percent of people that are making a substantial amount from outside sources and not being taxed for it
