they only problem i have with uhc is that it's so easy for a government to come in and deny access to marginalised groups (look at labour and what they're doing with trans people and the nhs) so any uhc system needs to be build with safeguards in place that make it incredibly hard for future governments to come in and selectively ban services based on "moral" bullshit.

I believe that by UHC, they mean United Healthcare. A for profit company that is particularly bad at providing healthcare. Which is the reason why their CEO was murdered in the street last year.

OH! sorry! i misunderstood! i apologise!

UHC meaning United HealthCare I believe, the company who's CEO was killed by someone and is currently under investigation for fraud.
