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?
A pure flat tax wouldn't cure that completely, but it would go a long way.
Will never happen, though.
Of course not. So you will get 50% of the people not paying any federal income taxes and the other 50% paying extra. How is this fair again?
Actually ~ 50% of the population isn't working now. 30% of them are on entitlements they are supposed to be on - SS, SSDI, retirement, etc.
The rest are on one "temporary" entitlemnt or another.
The solution is to all of our problems is to get people working.

How do you come by that fact, as the labor participation rate is 63%.
What is your plan to produce the jobs?
Why wouldn't they be entitled to health care?

Isn't this where you say, "Life isn't fair."?
Life isn't fair, but stealing from one person to pay for another is criminal. Besides, if life isn't fair, then why don't people who can't afford health care just do without? Life isn't fair, right?
But it's supposed to not fair for you, not me.
Yeah, doesn't work that way. Again, that quote from Franklin works here. "When the people find that they can vote themselves money that will herald the end of the republic."
We might as well flush the whole damn country down the toilet. Actually, we're already doing that, aren't we?
Sure seems so, sometimes.

Technically in the USA it is not a right but it should be... It IS a universal human right recognized by the UN though.

True; but only because of the involvement by Congress to funnel as much money as possible back to their individual states!Well, the DoD is responsible for a lot of the absurdities you referenced.
No need to "repeal" any of them, considering they're all on the brink of going broke from the enormous waste, fraud, inefficiency and corruption forever present in all government agencies.Would you support repealing Medicare, Medicaid, EMTALA and the like, and tolerating deprivation and amenable mortality for those who don't have the cash to cover whatever treatment they're needing?
The "enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights" does not pertain to rights that have no enumeration.You are not correct. Amendment IX states: "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
Jefferson was against a Bill of Rights in part because he was afraid people in the future would things are you are.
Those things I mentioned are totally relevant to any responsibility people want to relegate to government.All of which is utterly irrelevant to what I stated.
What else do you have?
The "enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights" does not pertain to rights that have no enumeration.
And the reason those "rights" you allude to have no enumeration is because they're non-existent!
