What if I came up with a new advertising campaign to increase sales for a company, and after vast amounts of money, and decades of time put into the campaign, sales not only did not increase, but sales decreased. Would I then be in my right to say "Correlation does not equal causation"?
welfare means more people get access to a better life, better healthcare.
This creates the need for more professionals in this area and some money does go into these people's pockets... they don't work for free!
To me, it looks like a win-win.. ok, maybe some win more $$$ in the process, but... can you put a price on health?
Do you have any evidence that socialised healthcare makes people healthier?
Even so, you are still crossing the moral threshold of initiating violence to get something you want. If I am hungry, does it give me the right to steal from a restaurant? of course not.
Of course you can put a price tag on healthcare, it costs time and money to make medicine, train doctors, and have equipment. What are you really asking?
The only freedom, is freedom from illusion.
