So, if I understand it, we need socialized medicine because about 15% of Americans don’t get medical care because they don’t have health insurance . . . most likely because they don’t work hard enough, or they simply don’t want to buy it because they’re young and healthy and they’ll take the risk

O.K. After we nationalize our medical care, about 15% of us won’t get any medical care because the government will decide that we’re too young or too old.

It’s bad to not have health care when it’s your own damn fault, but it’s o.k. to be denied health care if the government says so? That’s progress?
