This is a pretty tricky way of implying that a country MUST need universal healthcare in order to not be "The Worst". Out of the 196 countries on this planet, the US is going to be the worst because we don't have it universally? I take it getting healthcare in Myanmur is better than getting it in the US?

Yes, that's exactly true. Shitting on human rights by not having universal healthcare does make the US' healthcare system the worst in the developed world.

>human rights >universal healthcare Contrary to popular belief, the government does NOT have to provide universal healthccare

That doesn't say anywhere that I don't support free healthcare, that just shows that i think it's not a right that the government has to provide. Are you going to keep going in circles here?
-
Universal healthcare and free healthcare are the same. I'm not going in circles here. Just repeating what you said. If you don't support universal healthcare then you don't support it being free.
-
I never said I don't support universal healthcare, I said it's not a right that the government has to provide
-
Do you support public education?
-
Yes, why?
-
If you support education being a right rather than a privilege, why can't healthcare?
-
Who said I said education was a right? I just said I support public education.
-
Ok........you support the fact that every student can attain an education without paying for it. It becomes a right at that point. Nevertheless, you support it, but you don't support health care being free. Why is education that much important?
-
Just because I support something doesn't make it a right. And I never said I don't support healthcare being free, I just said it's not a right. Are you going to continue to assume things?
-
Universal healthcare=free healthcare I'm not assuming, just going by your previous responses.

-
Sure it doesn't, if you live in a third world country.
-
Government doesn't have to anywhere, universal healthcare is a luxury, not a human right.
-
Humans have a right to live, therefor they have a right to universal healthcare because healthcare is often necessary to live.
-
Right to life /=/ right to universal healthcare Keep trying. Government has to protect it's people, but not offer universal healthcare
-
If the government does not offer universal healthcare, it is failing to protect them and allowing them to die, and even worse, in a discriminatory fashion targeted against the lower class.

Edited by MoReCoWbELLx2x1: 6/11/2014 10:35:53 PM[quote]Discriminatory against the lower class[/quote] It's not discriminatory in any way if they don't offer anybody universal insurance. And that's why hospitals can't turn people away, because the government has to protect and help them. But universal healthcare doesn't have to happen, it's not a right
-
Yeah, the hospital treats them, then bills them 50,000 dollars they don't have afterwards. The bill for that life saving treatment that is their fundamental human right should be exactly $0.00.
-
Except it's not a right, keep trying

You're the one who thinks poor people should die because they're poor. Healthcare is a human right that cannot be denied for monetary reasons.
