What was amazing at the start was the premise that you could furnish
health care for more people for less money. Never made sense, but
they said it with a straight face.
I believe their theory is that all of us who rarely use doctors will
be paying for those who do.
I believe that compulsory healthcare insurance is a good thing.

What you're really saying is that you think the benefits outweigh the
detriments. If you want a thing and can afford it, you've probably
already got it and don't need to be compelled. If you don't want a
thing, why should someone else have the right to make you get it at your
expense? And if you can't afford it, why should someone else be able to
force a third party to get it for you at their expense? It makes no
difference how laudable the thing is, making it compulsory takes away
your freedom. So what you're really saying is that you believe denying
me and others our freedom is a good thing.
