Before you ask for single payer please take the time to study the VA. The federal government has proven that CAN NOT do healthcare right.
1. Healthcare is not a human right
2. No it wouldn't
3. Most Eurpean countries suck.
1. Back your claims with evidence 2. If not, you're just talking out your end.
You are the one who isn't backing up your claims with evidence, prove healthcare is a right
@The MarketLibertarian You made the claim that healthcare was not a human right. I cannot discuss that if you do not explain what you mean by human right and why healthcare is not under that category. YOU wrote your comment first, and I responded asking for clarification. Either deliver that or don't bother commenting in the first place.
You don't get to flip the BOP. I wrote that in response anyway. You claimed that healthcare is aright somehow, you didn't rationalize why.
Since you won't step up:
Article 25 of the Declaration of Human Rights "Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well being of himself and his family, including food, clothing, housing, medical care, and necessary social services, and the right to security in case of...Circumstances beyond his control."
You can also interpret the "right to life" as including healthcare.
I personally don't think universal healthcare would ever be viable in the US, not because of money or anything, but because of the people. Progress is a word we are all foreign to, so I doubt it is worth anyone's time to debate this.
What the UN says is really irrelevant- the entire idea of rights were invented by John Locke who defined them in a negative sense.
