Default Re: Universal Healthcare? Can it work? I\'m doubtful...

You have what you need, and you have no responsibility to anybody else. That's just wrong. We all have a responsibility to each other.

I completely disagree with your premise that I owe you anything, I feel that if you're unable to provide for yourself, you should only recieve essentials, such as emergency room care for medical emergencies. If I'm able to provide insurance for myself, I should have the added advantage of being able to go to the doctor for petty things.

Life isn't fair, and trying to "force fairness" has never worked. Well, actually, I take that back, it has worked. It works in this sense: The poor stay poor, and the wealthy become poor too.
