Think about it..
Healthy people who take care of themselves will have to pay for fatasses who smoke, drink excessively, etc. With universal health care the costs will be spread to all Americans, regardless of your health or your need for medical care.

Wow Nethorse you have a funny and very selfish way of looking at life
I have never begrudged paying such a little amount out of what I earn to go towards our NHS sytem over here and although I very rarely have the need to use them at least I can sleep at night knowing that they are there and I can get treatment which wont break the bank. Everybody pays into the NHS system so that means that those fat lazy people you are on about are also putting money into the system and have a right to be treated.
I dont care if I never have to use the NHS and Iv paid money into the system all of my working life, hopefully it will help somebody else who needs it more than me
I do not see why you are so against a goverment run health service and private service run along side each other it works just fine over here in the UK
