To a point, yes. I am old enough to remember when doctors did pro-bono work, and hospitals sometimes gave free care to the destitute. These were mainly charity hospitals, mainly Catholic, some Methodist. It was a system that worked. Nobody went broke supporting it.
Universal health care meant something different for the better part of 1500 years, until the Socialist the world over came to power and through regulations that in creased cost and taxes the decreased donations pushed the church out and co-opted the concept into “State provided health care”.
The inefficient and ineffective state providing health care is equally as abhorrent and unacceptable as is tossing the less fortunate to the wolves to die. Indeed state run health care appears to toss a broad range of mankind to the wolves, ultimately tossing us all out as it consumes the last of our treasury..
Obvious there would need to be another way, another option...
Our compassion and faith gives us no choice on one and our economy gives us no choice on the other.
