i can’t resist the political question, so let’s phrase it as related to kids:?
parents, would you rather your kids grow up in a society where basic services protecting health, safety, and property (fire, police, healthcare) are a la carte items provided privately for those who choose to pay for them, or one where those services are provided for all regardless of willingness or ability to pay?
if you lean more towards (a), what’s your reaction to the firefighter story?
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39516346/ns/us_news-life/
and if you’re appalled by the firefighter story, do you feel that medical care is different?
wow, brianna, quite a quote in that version of the story by someone defending the firefighters: “the world is full of jerks, freeloaders, and ingrates — and the problems they create for themselves are their own”.
thumbs down not from me, btw. i did ask the question.
We have an human obligation to help people when they are at their most vulnerable.
