“Free” Health Care Formula

in health-care •  8 years ago 

100% of the people would be covered including poor, elderly and defenseless children. If you don't want to pay, stop living an unhealthy lifestyle. My plan removes the federal government and puts the expense where it needs to be. Why should I (one who makes healthy lifestyle choices) be forced to subsidize you (drinker, smoker and overwieght from poor eating habits).

Why should I, no car-driver, subsidize you, with the bad habit of driving cars? Or those who you make sick with your fumes?
And so on. You can't make a clear cut.

And I don't see how everyone can be covered if everyone pays the same, because there are certainly a lot of people who cannot afford that.

Stop being a sheep and eating what the media feeds you...think for yourself. Everyone does not pay the same. Someone who smokes would pay more than someone who does not via the extra tax. If you drink alcohol every day, you are paying more thru tax, which goes towards everyone's healthcare.

This concept would work for drivers as well. Tax the gasoline. The more you drive, the more you pay...the more you also have a chance of an accident, so its fair.

But you are talking suddenly about taxes!!! You didn't do that before! You wrote everyone pays the same!
