So here in Taiwan, we all understand, a single player universal service for health covers all our health needs, and therefore people voluntarily cooperate with the public health system, because even if they have not actually Covid, or whatever other illness they are suffering from, it will cost them nothing anyway, including the free testing and checks and so on. So, I use, just this one example, but when in Taiwan we say something that is social, in our constitution we make a very clear separation between dentistry and so on, which is social medicine, and artificial beautification, which is not covered by the health coverage. So, we have a capitalist part, but also a socialist part, in our constitution.
