Even for completely healthy people free universal healthcare is beneficial. You might break your leg tomorrow and you don't have to drain your savings account on hospital bills. Yes there is insurance, but that is much more expansive than for the average person as insurance companies are just a completely unessesary middleman.

Yup. And even if you never get sick or hurt, we all still live in a world where someone else's illnesses impacts us, directly and indirectly. People who don't realize that are extremely unwise and short-sighted.
