Re: universal healthcare
Universal health care is merely a transfer of wealth from those who have means to those who do not.
If a person does not have health care, would it not be incumbent upon them to try to maintain good health and avoid the need for health care that they cannot afford? Statistics show that younger adults are more likely to not carry health insurance than other demographics and it makes sense, as they are less likely to be sick (although more likely to be injured).
As to me, my perfect health plan would be major medical (surgery, hospitalization, etc) and a drug plan. I would then pay only for regular visits and tests. Others may want other options.
But in every case, I think that everyone should pay something toward their own health insurance, if they want insurance.
