Im against universal healthcare because I dont think I should have to pay for some lazy ass to get healthcare. I think that people should work hard and earn it on there own. I dont like the idea of paying taxes for people who are to lazy to get a job. I believe having a healthcare plan is a PRIVILEGE  not a right. and to the people that complain about not getting it at there job or get bad coverage well FIND A NEW JOB OR PICK A DIFFERENT CAREER

Keep telling people to get better jobs, you'll have no one to do the jobs that you don't want to do.
I agree with some of your points, but you're going about it in an ignorant fashion saying things like that.

Well when you get ill prepare for shit loads of bills, even if you do have insurance you will probably be hit with huge bills because the US health system is so corrupt.

Doesn't it seem stupid that you pay higher taxes than us, even though we have free health care and not only that but a more effective health care?

I don't see how anyone should have any more right to get treatment than any other person, and if you were really poor you would say the exact same thing.

Agreed.

I'd rather pay higher taxes here in the UK and have the benefit of the NHS than live in the USA where you're pretty much fucked if you get a medical problem.

How can you say you're against it when you clearly know hardly anything about it. People like you shouldn't be able to vote.

That's what we've been doing before. It's called insurance. I and a million other people pay into a fund so that someone else can get healthcare they normally couldn't afford. I am paying for someone else to get healthcare.

Again, not much thinking goes on in the brain eh?


I think that people should work hard and earn it on there own. I dont like the idea of paying taxes for people who are to lazy to get a job.

So you're also against paying taxes so that farmers will leave their fields fallow?

Furthermore, due to the rising costs of healthcare, many hard working people and firms cannot afford healthcare. Walmart has been one of the major sources of problems in healthcare as it cannot afford to provide it, so it doesn't give it to millions of its workers. Guess who ends up paying for it? You and I.


I believe having a healthcare plan is a PRIVILEGE  not a right. and to the people that complain about not getting it at there job or get bad coverage well FIND A NEW JOB OR PICK A DIFFERENT CAREER

So what's your plan as there are only a finite amount of jobs that have healthcare and far more workers then those jobs.

I agree, socialized universal is a bad idea. However your argument is stupid and asinine.

I have to say it, we have lower taxes.

But the statistics don't lie, capitalists do.

Therefore you're okay with letting millions of the poor die because they can't afford treatment?

That's not communism! You've been hit too many times with the stupid stick.

National health care is a socialist idea.
Well the NHS was set up by conservatives.

I would agree if we all had the same starting point. That simply isn't true.
