Explain why voting doesn’t impact your healthcare choices under capitalism?

Under capitalism the government is not able to force a healthcare scheme on you—Obamacare, Medicare, Medicaid, or the like. You are empowered to manage your own healthcare with the marketplace offering you a plethora of health insurance options, from inexpensive catastrophic plans to more comprehensive alternatives. And doctors and other healthcare providers compete for your business with both quality and price. All of healthcare goes the way of Lasik surgery, which is relatively less impacted by government and as a consequence cheaper and of better quality with each passing year. And with lower costs comes lower health insurance premiums. With nobody wielding political power over the fate of your healthcare, political equality rules and your vote is of no significance for your healthcare.
