1) Government-run “universal health care” leads to rationing

With our current insurance-run health care, providers often have more incentive to deny care than to provide it, in order to maximize profits. This system/business is built upon a fundamental conflict of interest.

2) Health care is not a “right”

Fine, don’t pay a little now, pay a lot later. Because that’s what happens when uninsured people don’t go to the doctor until it’s an emergency. Argue whether it’s a “right” or “need” all you want.

It’s interesting that CNN reports 8 out 10 are happy when 43 million americans (15%) are uninsured. Makes me doubt the validity of the survey.
