Takacs thinks there should be an honest debate about what people should pay and what the government should pay.

With all due respect, there is no "right" to health care. The taxpayer should not be asked to pay for a person's health care, car, boat, or education when that person has assets to pay for it.

But when the state has already taken ALL of your assets, save your home, that justifies taking it too? In traditional bankruptcy cases, a man's clothes, home and car were always exempt from seizure. As a civilized society, we have understood there are limits to how far one can go to satisfy a debt. Depriving one of the means of shelter and existence is inhumane and offends our sense of morality.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus
