Healthcare is a benefit and the lack of universal healthcare has resulted in a competitive market where customers are free to choose the level of care for their need and budget. Universal healthcare is the worst of all worlds, comparatively.
- irrational 4y agoI’m sure all the people who have gone bankrupt from medical bills appreciate that sentiment. My brother in laws sister was recently diagnosed with cancer. Before she was diagnosed, she quit her job with benefits to stay home and take care of her father with advanced Parkinson’s. Her cancer is treatable, but she doesn’t have and can’t get insurance and doesn’t qualify for government help. Her choice is death or go into such incredible debt that she will never have hope to pay it off. She is 29. She has chosen death.

Yes, Medicare might help but that brings up another layer of bureaucracy and constraints to be managed by the patient. A society is much better when it's healthy, leaving health to be taken care by the law of the jungle isn't really building a healthy society.
