This attitude is precisely why people pursue socialist policies. I'm from the UK and have benefited hugely from socialist healthcare policies that even our conservatives pay lip service to supporting. There's an awful lot of libertarian, social darwinist claptrap in threads on this post. It gets away from the fact that what has happened is a relatively newly capitalist country has made a very substantial error to its citizens' cost, and there exists a possibility of injustice alongside the possibility that the rule of law may appear to be being ignored, depending on when the law changed. It isn't an opportunity to be performatively callous.
