Why do people want to give up their freedom. One of the things I like most about America is that as long as I do not hinder someone else's life I can do whatever I want. What people fail to realize when they look at the statistics of how many people do not have insurance in the US is how many of those people choose to not have it? There are people that are our age that choose not to have it. I honestly besides if I get hurt playing baseball don't need health care. So the people who don't want care now have to pay for it. That really sounds constitutional.
Saying that because you live in Cuyahoga county you should be healthy is like saying since you live or work in McDonald's you should be fat. This is one of the most utterly ridicules oppositions the people for universal care uses. Things don't just radiate health. In America we have some of the best most advance health care procedures why are we so willing to give that up? I believe that our generation is to wrapped up in "O man its free and for everyone!!?? How could that be bad??" We are out of the time of people living in oppression. Our grandfathers and great grandfathers are the ones who fought in WWI and WWII. They saw the power of socialism first hand. I said it once and I'll say it again Hitler started by socializing health care.
After reading some of Gaude and reading some about Obamacare I have come to the conclusion that socialized medicine is according to catholics a right. BUT the church does not support Obamacare. and I do believe in the separation of church and state. So for the rights of everyone else I believe that the Catholic church has no say in who should get health care.
I have not been swayed at all about my choice that health is a privilege. Obamacare provides things that are against the Catholic religion so we don't support Obamacare and as an American I can't support it. And I will not support anything that has Abortion rights.
DEFENDING THE OTHER SIDE
What makes your fellow man lesser then you. Just because he doesn't pull in the $80000 a year that you do does not mean that he should have to go sick. Health is for all men wether you have done right or wrong in your life. Everyone should have access to what can make him better. If everyone drug addict had help paying for rehab then we would probably have a lot less addicts out there. The world needs to give second chances because people mess up. We have no right to judge who should get what. Everyman is entitled to the right to health care because if we put our own people out on the streets then how can we move forward.
I agree with the fact that healthcare is and should be a privilage. I also like that you make a point about the separation of church and state. The church should not have any say in what becomes law, especially when other religions have no say. All in all I agree with pretty much all of what you have to say.
