The first thing that told me I was no longer in the US on my first trip to Canada was buying a diet Coke in the 7-11. When handed my change, I started looking for the milk jug. Every convenience store in the US has one for someone with cancer or who needs a transplant. It's rare to see one here. Clerk looked at me like I had a screw loose.

Do you believe people have a right to health insurance

what else should be free?

 Grocerys, college education, cars and gasoline, housing, internet, computers, beer,  cigarettes,  marijuana, birth control, abortions and/or love

 

Everything should be free

NOT

Nihil Obstat

Money is just, like, a social construct man. Everything is free at a cosmic level, even money.

well your just making yourself look stupid.  i don't think anyone one who completely follows the catholic church is advocating free birth control or free abortions.  

 

also housing and food should be free for those who are unable to care for themselves such as children, mentally or severe physically handicap.  basically anyone who is unable to provide for themselves.  of course i am sure some would argue that its not their fault the infant or the extrmely handicapped adult can't get a job and pay for their own food and shelter and its not there problem.  if the truely helpless in our society can't support themselves, then to bad for them and if they die its not societies problem.  hopefully your not in that group of people.

Health insurance costs as much as it does among other reasons because chemo can be 14k a month and a brainsurgery with radiation easily costs over 100k with specialists, specialized training, and technology.
