Wrong question. It's polarizing and doesn't solve anything. My POV is that society as a whole (as well as each individual) benefits from good health therefore we all share a responsibility to facilitate it.

@digital producer 1- if trumpcare goes through it wont matter, healthcare laws will default to state law. Each state chooses what matters. Live in a conservate state that doesnt want to fund pre-existing? Oh well. You're out. This is why the smugness of the republicans is so outrageous. EVERYONE will be affected even if you dont have trumpcare. Gotta read the fine print. Regardless of your politics, people matter and healthcare matters. We all do better when our neighbors are healthy too. Its the fabric of society. Or the next hungry games.

I guess why even question if healthcare is a right? That's not even a question. The question is what's the right way to ensure that everyone has access to healthcare, not just the privileged.

I never thought "right" is the right word to use. It's a service. Rights are things that don't have to be given by someone else. They are inalienable. Medical care is something that is provided from one person to another.

I would say health is a right. We have the right to be healthy. The system in place that we go through to achieve or maintain health should not be an unnecessary burden on our lives. Whether that burden be administrative, financial, or corporate in nature, it is all wrong and desperately needs to be reworked. Not that that is ever going to actually happen.
