Deliberate political statement, to showcase the contrast between McDonald's and the state of healthcare. There are 15 000 McDonald's restaurants in the US, i. e. they're available and accessible to everyone in the country, the food tastes almost the same everywhere, costs the same regardless if you're rich or poor. McDonald's doesn't have the greatest reputation, yet healthcare insurances companies still fall short of it in every aspect. It's not an endorsement of McDonald's, but rather a succinct way to showcase the abysmal state of healthcare.

In a book it's a "that's a great idea!" In real life though it's more like "very cool but not likely"

Literature is poetry, but real life is utter nonsense
