Their healthcare approaches are so different that your attempt to draw conclusions are almost impossible. You are also dodging the facts of the matter. Primary one being do the listed countries do or do not have better health outcomes than the US? This thread was started on the premise of maga republicans and make it a uniquely US focus thread. Does contrast and compare apply? Why does it matter what mechanism generates better health outcomes.

But here we are with the expansion of inserting themselves into medical policy.

Click to expand... This is part of my disillusionment with the Republican party as it is today. We have a value system which we will break when it's convenient for us. But as you stated this is may be a fundamental issue that may be causing them to use big gov on this issue. When these policies are pushed and taught in public schools and can impact kids that are not really gender dysphoric. Then it becomes a problem. Because by pushing it in public schools your making it they're problem. It's the classic separation between religion in schools. People didn't want religion to be forced on them in a public education setting. I think the same issue applies here. Your forcing it on people and as you stated if you don't want to learn it like some didn't want to learn a religion they didn't agree with you are cancelled bullied shamed and even cancelled. That's the issue that I think has made them want to rely on fed gov intervention. My biggest read on conservatives that aren't reacting to this as Lovin said from a hyper religious stand point or an extremist view is they really don't care what people chose to become when they reach the age of legal adulthood. But they draw the line when it comes to public education about this especially with youth in a public education setting both in sports and education. Combine this with the data that as you mentioned has shown there can be serious life long consequences for this and it may be being pushed to hard not always appropriately then well you have a powder keg of a policy situation here.

We don't let kids use certain drugs drink vote drive engage in sexual behaviour with adults past a certain age because they are impressionable vulnerable dont fully know themselves yet.

But you can permanently alter your body in a way that has serious impact on your quality of life and your mental health?
