Your first paragraph is false and indeed can not be true in any system that rations care. All health care systems ration care since no soceity has enough resources to cover and pay for all possible needed health services. Here resources includes number of qualified workers.

If its rationed then some people are going to be left out, and the moral argument crumbles, as people that need it don't get it.

The rationing can be in a moral way or in an immoral way. All systems ration care. Most do so in a much more morally palatable way than the U.S.
