Voters will never decide to defund it.

But they will never get that option.

They will get to vote for someone who wants to take back control of borders, or someone who wants “tighter fiscal control” or lower taxes.

That someone is going to defund universal healthcare. That someone isn’t going to take back control, and has no intention of getting fiscal control.

It’s the way they work.

If that’s true then why do they keep voting for politicians who defund it?

If you vote for someone who wants to defund healthcare, then obviously it wasn’t a dealbreaker for you. I don’t accept your narrative that elected officials don’t represent the people who voted for them.
