No, nor is it a right. It's a luxury.
- FireBeyond 9y agoWhat makes law enforcement a need, or a right, something that you're willing to stand up for, in your previous comments, but not health care?
- oreo81 9y agoIt's not a need or a right, it protects your rights. A right is something your have by nature, not something that can be provided to you by others.
- myaso 9y agoLife is not a need or a natural right. Nature can continue to grind on regardless of what you think. It seems you think that having other people enforce a system that offers you guarantees is something you are automatically entitled to having -- how much security you get is dependent upon the resources of the larger group, just like all other rights.
- ytwySXpMbS 9y agoSaying people don't need healthcare is like saying people don't need food. Whether a country's government should let people starve or die of cardiac arrest on the streets is another question, but I would say from a moral standpoint that it shouldn't.
