If all health care were completely free, all procedures were freely
available, and elective procedures were permissable, nearly everyone
in the country would be lining up at some point to get their freebies.
This should illustrate one of the fundamental problems with government
sponsored health care. Rationing won't simply be a debatable issue,
it will be an imperative. Philanthropy and voluntary service are
wonderful means to help those who are genuinely struggling. Government
control in the guise of benevolence is a horror story. Government can
only ever be a lover of itself. It's an oppressor in nearly all
ways.

Most of the civilized western world disagrees with your right-wing
talking point.

It's a libertarian, individualistic, anti-statist thought, and it's
premises are rooted in a real-world understanding of the nature of
man.

Libertarians...have no real-world understanding of the nature of man or
anything else. They are like Republicans, but Republicans who want to be
less responsible for their fellow man than Republicans.
