I have never purported to understand a lot about economics, but I do understand the idea which you are conveying.
I am having a harder time seeing how that does not involve the exploitation of people; a business doesn't have to make a single trade in order to exploit people. An owner or some intelligent upstart devises a way to make some sort of product which people may purchase, okay, but not everyone is going to be that guy, and in the process of that guy making his money, he's using the backs of laborers, exploiting them. Sure, the overall level of utility may rise, but that doesn't preclude the exploitation of people.

Socialist healthcare doesn't work, it has many problems. If you look at several other countries, they are far less effective (Not GB, look more South America like Argentina I believe).
Why are you cherrypicking which country I'm allowed to examine? It's obviously not a problem with the method if it works,
anywhere. Implementation? Sure.
