Healthcare should be a portion of your paycheck. You have to pay for it anyway, so why is this such a crazy idea? That way everyone pays into it, and everyone benefits from it.
The only people who do not like that idea, are the thieving (and unnecessary) for-profit insurance companies in the middle.
And,by the way, slavery, as defined by Webster, is actually "submission to a dominating influence". By that definition, you are already a slave - a slave to the corporations that control you,on every fucking level, right down to your healthcare.

Your first point doesn't make any sense at all. You don't get a medical doctorate from public education... public education is a whole different topic that I'd be happy to get into a later date, hahaha. BTW I come from a family of teachers... just throwing that out there...
It's not like unemployment would suddenly just go away LOL. It would just be optional for the employer... think 401k... it's a benefit.
Not everyone pays for and/or wants health care coverage. Some people prefer to pay for their doctors visits because WHOA IT COSTS LESS! I personally carry a private insurance that only covers me in emergency situations. It's far less expensive and I've saved tens of thousands over the years. I'm generally pretty healthy. Regardless you can't justify forcing someone to do something because, "everyone else is doing it".
I fall into none of those categories...
I am a slave to no corporation and neither are you. Please name a single instance where a private company in the United States is enslaving someone. You voluntarily choose to do business with whomever you are doing business with. Although you could say you are forced to use a specific telephone and cable provider but that's only because the government has declared them natural monopolies and additional companies are forbidden from providing service in your area ;) Again, the more legislation the more shitty the service becomes; look at Amtrac, LOL. It's illegal to create a passenger train service in the United States because you'd be competing with the government owned Amtrac. We can all see how awesome the passenger train system is in the United States ;) |
