It now seems to me that people are quite happy to have very little options and no rights to medical care because for those that can pay it's some of the best in the world.
In the Uk its some of the best in the world and if I go to Harley Street then there is nothing better but I wouldn't want my basic human right to treatment removed because in order to keep the care high all the money goes to those that can pay for the best not just basic.
Isn't your government supposed to look after you? Thats why you elect them.
Therealmafoo raised an interesting point that ins't limited to just America. Unhealthy people. In the UK the government adds higher tax to fags because smokers need more treatment causing more expence to the NHS and refuse to stop smoking and be healthier for their own sakes. People with heart problems should change their diet. Kids should be taught how to be healthy because their parents don't know.
These people are the biggest drain on health care. Those that wont help themselves. It's their lives and they should fix it not wait until a heart attack and expect someone else to clean up their mess. Unhealthy lifestyles are ruining health care. Adding extra unecessary expence and they should be made to make up the extra.
