Also frequently hear the same argument made for any change to the thoroughly corrupt healthcare scheme in the U.S.

That any form of socialized medicine would collapse the insurance industries putting thousands out of work and damaging stock portfolios and retirement accounts that may have invested in such. But hey, it's totally ok to bankrupt tons of citizens and enslave ill folks to lousy jobs because they can't afford to lose employment-tied insurance that would never be affordable as an individual.
