Nationalized Healthcare
The government is not a for-profit business
"But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in
it, away from the fog of controversy." -- former House Speaker and
emotional hag
The most ridiculous arguments for nationalized healthcare are:
1) By example of requiring automobile insurance if you own a
vehicle; and 2) Everyone has a right to healthcare. We are all
empowered with the right of self-protection; exercising a right is a
choice (and should be a responsible choice) – but never required.
Automobile insurance protects the other driver from our own
potential negligence; however, the self-protection clause of
automobile insurance is a choice. Everyone has access to
emergency medical care and there are practical ways to provide
non-emergent, but not preventive or elective medical care. How we
do or do not care for ourselves is a choice -- like having a fire
extinguisher or not. I am unequivocally opposed to nationalization
of anything which is not within the purpose of governing – socialism,
the Parasitic Cult.
