Is healthcare a right or a privilege.
I would assume if you believe healthcare is a right, than everyone should have access to healthcare, and for many, free healthcare. If healthcare is free, than who would be the ones paying for it?

The same people who pay insurance premiums every month.. except everyone pays.. in single-payer.
Many people in this country can't afford a premium payment.

And they force those who do pay for health insurance into paying for them..
How?
..
Hospital costs go up to compensate for all the uninsured people that receive services and cannot pay. These costs are forwarded onto the consumer, in this case the purchaser of insurance, ends up eating the costs for the uninsured that receive health care.
Calling a service provided by other people a right is bogus and is akin to promoting slavery.

Health care is considered a right of citizenship in wealthy, advanced countries. In poor, developing countries health care is only for those who can afford it.

That's because of a law passed by Reagan.
So what other things do people have a right to have others provide them?
Roads, elementary education, viable currency, police, lotsa stuff, lots more that I can't think of right now. Was the road past your place plowed for snow this winter?

At the end of the day it matters not. The real debate is how you accomplish the goal for all to have access to health care in an affordable, timely and sustainable way, otherwise the song remains the same.
Those are government services, not rights.
No. The taxpayer payed plow service doesn't come out here.
Why wouldn't they be entitled to health care?I'm puzzled why people with pre-existing conditions think they are entitled to health care. IMO programs like Medicaid need to be cut.
