    I've been criticized for saying this, so let me repeat it: Yes, health care is a right of all people.

        Doesn't matter you've been criticized. Rights LIMIT government; health care is not a right. You can be for it, but it's not a right.

        Hardly a charity. The money you have from people's taxes is not YOUR money!! The people should decide if it's to be spent on health care!!

        Republicans don't understand how it's our money. Not the govs. It was never theirs. Therefore it's not a handout

        I guess I need a US Constitution 2.0, because mine doesnt have that one listed. Does Amazon sell the new version of the document?

        I pay for my own. Why should I get taxed to pay for someone else's?

        It would more than likely be cheaper than what you pay now because you would pay the tax and not the insurance cost.

        I would guess so too. And much cheaper than our free military

        The ACCESS to healthcare is a right, the government has no right to prevent it. You do not have the right to coerce treatment.

        It isn't coercion if the practitioner is being paid which they would be. ACCESS to healthcare is a meaningless term.

        It is coercion if it is not on their terms.

        It isn't if the terms are known to begin with. No doctor under universal healthcare anywhere is coerced to do anything other than their job!

        Telling a business owner or operator what they can or can't charge is coercion, there's no way around that.

        Doctors should be neither, they should be doctors, and they don't decide their prices now anyway, Medicine should not be a business.

        But is a business because it involves commodities and a ridiculous amount of training. Get over it.

        You get over it! Medicine operates as a service in most other countries, drugs that are essential for health should not be a commodity.
