A. National Healthcare will destroy millions of jobs in the private health industry, isn’t your view and the authors is that saving any middle skill job the most important thing?
B. You may have heard of ObamaCare, right? Anyone that wants to go from big corp to a small startup can buy ACA coverage so that is not a barrier anymore.
C. Mandatory restriction on how many hours someone can work is a great threat to individual rights. This harms the ambitious low income worker’s ability to get ahead. I’m also a geek but graduated from a for-profit college that XIT grads would call a joke, but I worked many 90 hour weeks (salary, no overtime) at startups without health insurance or ACA and this made me successful and wealthy so I don’t think any government should be preventing others from working for a good future.
I think he means mainly as a cost reduction. This is true. A free single payer option would give a free benchmark for many healthcare problems, bringing the private price down. Also, there would be things like single buyer negotiation, which is illegal today in the US AFAIK. Just comparing costs and life expectancy in the US vs national healthcare countries strongly suggests this would happen
I don't think at all that saving jobs is the most important thing. I'm concerned about the social, political, and humanitarian ramifications of doing it too fast.
A. Won’t automation destroy the same jobs. Ultimately only 2 or 3 healthcare systems will emerge just as all the other industries Then they might decide to specialize as in any other industry Only one company builds the B2 air craft When I was in practice 20 - 25 percent of patients had to switch insurance due to change in jobs or contracts quarterly with lots of unnecessary paperwork
With mandatory sharing of medical records and transparent billing change will occur Same as government care but only with a few more middle elite autocrats and less competition

Agreed on freedom. We shouldn't curtail it.
