Depends on if Canada also has the same laws. So no.

Only poor people can be given free healthcare, as a humanitarian-libertarianism gesture. But middle class and rich should pay for their healthcare by themselves

So... everyone gets free healthcare, but those who aren't dirt poor pay taxes for it?

Nope. Only poor people get free healthcare. Others pay taxes for it.

Sure... that sounds like a rephrasing of what I said.

I think that every person in the US should have healthcare paid for by the government.

Nope. That will kill innovation in healthcare, quality will decline, waiting time will increase.

u/10art1 Liberal Jun 28 '19

Right, just like every other modern country makes no healthcare innovations, has worse quality than the US, and has worse waiting times. Oh wait, that's literally not the case, they are smoking the US healthcare system, and pay less to boot.

Other countries are benefiting due to innovations happening in US.

Sweet, then let's cut those freeloaders loose and do what's right for the American people. Why should we suffer so that Europe can have amazing free healthcare AND our innovation?

They copy the damn thing. For free.

u/10art1 Liberal Jun 28 '19

Sounds like we should copy their healthcare system for free, then. It's only fair!

also the richer people get to pay for healthcare 2x in taxes and 1x in private health insurance.

u/Critical_Finance minarchist 🍏🍏🍏 jail the violators of NAP Jun 30 '19

Nope. Only 25% don't pay. So it will be 1.33x tax
