did you notice how i said affordable healthcare.. to me that means that everyone should have the right to be able to afford healthcare even if that means that we have to give it to some people for free..
the healthcare bill that was finally passed was 180 degrees from what was the original intent. once again big corporations figured out a way to make this benefit themselves and not the people...
any questions?

Ok I completely disagree with you but I'd like to say that this is a brilliant post. By specifying that you believe that everyone has the right to affordable health care you have exactly stated what you believe.
I personally don't believe that anyone has the RIGHT to ANYTHING they can't afford.
If you want affordable healthcare you aren't going to get it by forcing the people with the money to pay for the people without the money... that only drives costs UP. As the system has to support everyone, regardless of the fact that they can afford it or not. It's not free! Everyone else has to bare the cost.
Additionally, you've already made your choice between utopia and freedom. You've chosen utopia. You have an ideal that you would like to accomplish and you are willing to force everyone into participating in your ideal via taxation.
I can't and won't tell you that your opinion is wrong as it's an opinion... I will however say that the idea of forcing anyone to do anything else against their will... is wrong. At least in my book, hahaha.
EDIT:
When I read:
"...even if that means that we have to give it to some people for free.."
I translate to a much more accurate statement; "....even if that means that we have to force some people into slavery (working for someone else's benefit for no compensation)"
