Excellent article on how the left is trying to define a "right" to health care.

I believe that during the Hillarycare fiasco, Bill Clinton’s advisers determined that ‘Universal Health care’ would cost an extra $500/month for every family in this country. I doubt it was the public outcry that sank Hillarycare. Bill probably realized that the Dems would be out of power forever if that tax was implemented.

You can bet your last dollar that Hillary, Reid, Pelosi, and the rest of the DC morons wouldn’t go anywhere near a health care facility run by the government. Only us unwashed masses would have to line up to suffer with that. DC political “Royalty” take care of themselves first; the rest of us can die from lack of care or inferior care. Call it Liberal dictatorship.

"One of the biggest questions of the day is health care - why are people being denied this most basic human right,"

Health care isn't a HUMAN RIGHT. It never ever was. Nor is it a HUMAN RIGHT to STEAL MY MONEY to pay for ANYONE'S health problems.

The Democrats want to make All Americans into SLAVES, To take what we earn and spend it on what ever whim they dream up. I will pay for my own health care, thank you very much, and not for anyone else's unless I feel charitable.

Does anyone really want to be like Canadians and pay (based on a $60,000. yearly income) $20,000 a year for crappy health care where you have to wait 2 years for knee surgery, or to have a bad disk fixed, or die waiting for heart surgery?

NO!,br> NO!
NO!

Socialized medicine - A system based on all the compassion of the IRS and delivered with the efficiency of the DMV.

Control the Insurance companies. They are the ones driving prices up. Insurance companies are the richest companies in the world.

When the Hell did something that is not in any way free become a basic human right?

How did I suddenly become imbued with the right to use the services, products, and labors of others by simple right of birth?

- I do wait for long times to properly use the term “imbue.” 8^)

If "health care" is a "basic human right," why are doctors and hospitals allowed to charge anyone, including the taxpayers, for it. They should be providing this "right" for free.

Socialists are morons.
