Uni Health Care

[dry land fish]

As a Libertarian I believe it is the government's responsibility to protect the lives of its citizens, ergo public healthcare should be a top agenda. Private healthcare should also exist to cater to those who wish to use it. Whilst public healthcare will be a basic service (as in no perks other than good healthcare), the private healthcare business would provide those perks (such as private rooms, personal doctors, etc) for a price.

Would this mean the rich people pay taxes towards a service they won't use, and then go on to pay again for a service they will?

As a Libertarian I believe that everyone should be in charge of their own health care. If someone doesn't make enough money to afford health care then oh well. I work for my money and they should do the same. I don't work to give healthcare to other people who can't afford it. I don't mind the elderly getting a free ride when it comes to health care. I also don't mind if mentally or physically retarded people or disabled people get a free ride with health care. I do care that I have to pay for health care for lazy people and women who use their vagina as a baby factory. I have hardly ever had health care in my life. If I needed a doctor I paid for it out of pocket. I didn't go around whining because someone else wouldn't use their taxes to pay for it. How can a Libertarian expect the government to pay for our health care?

I think that if we are going to have govt. health care this is how it should work. Each WORKER can opt to pay part of their taxes toward health care and in turn they can use the government health care if they choose to. If not they can get their own insurance. If one chooses not to pay taxes toward it then they don't reap the benefits. This is how social security should be handled. If you don't have a job and aren't going to get one then oh well.....you just don't get health care. Pay taxes into it or go without.
