Why didn't nazi Germany have universal healthcare?
What kept people from demanding it?

.... because they _did_ have it? It wasn't universal at the time, covering only the poorest workers, but Germany was the first country to establish a social health care system in 1883. It didn't work very well during the war, but it was technically still there. Since the war, they gradually expanded it achieving universal coverage sometime in the 1980s.
