Health care bill aside, talking about the basic fairness of redistribution's, the financial responsibility my neighbor incurs from health care is not my obligation. Access to health care should be non discriminatory, but the financial responsibility should fall on the individual.
Single payer systems like Medicare and Medicaid are bullshit. Period. Unfortunately once you start these redistribution's the snowball is to large to stop.
Socialist systems like these increase government dependency, which consequently also increases incumbency for this type of ideology. Look at Welfare, 31.5 million on it in 2008 (the most since its resurrection) that number is not shrinking. Threaten to take away welfare and it is political suicide.
Socialism won, not because it is a better system, but because it is a strong parasite.
