Yes they do! Unions though aren't the reason for the lack of cheap care, after all each party involved in a private system is incentivized to gouge as much as possible due to a lack of collective safety nets.



> collective safety nets.

as in losing jobs to ML algorithms ? What would the point of a union then :)


Is this the hypothetical future where every job is replaced by a ML algorithm? In such case, you better hope there is some form of collective safety net for you ;)

No. we are talking about doctors in specific.

Your original point won't stand if everyone in the world is replaced by AI.

There would be no private insurance through their employers if no one has a job in first place.
