I'm happy paying for schools despite having no children because it benefit society as a whole. Can we not apply the same thinking here?

  That was not the point. The point is that universal healthcare is taking money from my pocket and giving it to someone else.

    If you ever have a serious illness or an accident money will be taken out of someone's pocket and given to you. Unless you don't have insurance and refuse treatment.

    You can qualify everything as a "handout" then. Like private car insurance, which is taking money from you and paying to a driver who had an accident.

    Maybe I'm missing the point too, but can't that description be applied to insurance itself? So what's your point?
