        back in the day you had to make choices- ex. buy cigarettes or buy milk. What happened to personal responsibility?

        health care does not work like a commodity because people cannot choose which diseases they have or their biology.

        treating health care as a commodity is why we have insulin costing 100x more in US than the U.K.

        Because you are entitled to neither a phone nor a Dr.'s time and expertise merely for existing. The government is not your daddy.

        I don't think these two things should even be compared. Are you assuming healthcare is not an important matter?

        .@nytimes HC is expensive, whether covered by insurance or not. That is why a mandate IS NECESSARY; everyone has financial responsibility.

        HC is expensive specifically because it is not a free market and there is no competitive pricing.
