    The proper model is everyone has a mandatory contribution % of their income above a poverty line.

    State-run Mandatory Health Insurance, that provides healthcare free of additional charges. *old Russian anthem intensifies*

        Not true. Though the nazis certainly built a lot of additional Autobahnen to prepare for the war, they knew they would start. Fun fact: Wehrmacht logistics largely relied on horse-drawn carriages. The soviets got Studebaker trucks.
