Basic Rights in the US

Sorry, I am not following you?

It isn’t free. Taxes would increase on the riches Americans.

The Obama Promise…

It’s free to the people getting the healthcare. I want my free gun and ammo. Why isn’t the GOVERNMENT paying for it?

Why should some rich dude have to buy my gun?

Then modify the 2A. We are talking hypotheticals here. Healthcare currently isn’t a right. Whether healthcare is codified in law or not… healthcare should be a priority for our government, in my opinion.

Why does the 2nd need to be modified? That doesn’t make any sense at all.

You said healthcare is a right. You said the GOVERNMENT has to pay for it.

You said keeping and bearing arms is a right. Why does the GOVERNMENT have to pay for one and not the other?

What kind of bull shit is this?

I didn’t say the government has to pay for it. I said the people will pay for it through their taxes. Specifically rich people.

Sarcasm.
One of the benefits of the ACA was everyone would save 2500 if they implemented the ACA.

Not to mention you could keep your doctor and insurance along with a ton of other lies the left ignores today.

Kind of sounds like a Geico commercial come to think of it.

Having a right to something is not the same as a right to have it provided for you.

Who writes the checks, the gov’t or individuals?

Even if we taxed the top 10% at a rate of 100% there would never be enough money to provide “healthcare for all” unless we strictly ration healthcare for all.

And what good is “free” healthcare anyway when the majority of doctors remaining in the field aren’t interested in providing healthcare at all but rather just making money (because of all the extra bullshit and paperwork that was created through government intervention like the ACA?) And that generally leads to worse healthcare, not better. Remember when Doctors got into medicine to help people? How many do that now?

I pay for my own guns and ammo; I pay for my own health care. What’s the problem? :wink:

Why would the government give you health care for free?

No … it does not! The Constitution provides no rights. The Constitution GUARANTEES rights.

You get a massive influx of foreign doctors like we had in the 80’s and 90’s which causes the quality of health care to drop as well.

Patient/Doctor communication is an essential part of healthcare and that becomes progressively more difficult when the physician can’t speak fluent English without a heavy accent and doesn’t understand the culture of the locality in which they practice.

The BOR doesn’t create rights, it protects the basic rights we inherited from our creator.

Open a history book.

Typical Socialist response. Instead of fixing the core problems of failure to take responsibility, failure to gain sufficient education, failure to gain sufficient workplace skills, failure to make good dietary choices, failure to be sufficiently productive, the Socialists resort to theft from those who have been entrepreneurial and productive and where the top 1% are already contributing the lion’s share of the US government’s tax revenue (+27%).

Many still are interesting in providing healthcare however with government regulations via the ACA they now do far more paperwork to stay in compliance.

The costs to convert to digital records was huge to small practices. My doc was quoted 100K for the conversion, the government offered 30K in assistance. He closed the practice.

Doctors are faced with 63 different free preventative services to deal with.
Doctors are faced with 10’s of thousand of billing codes to deal with.
Th ACA allows payment for the first 30 days of service to doctors when people do not pay their premiums. The ACA demands physicians service patients for 90 days should agents not pay their premiums before they are dropped. The doctors are responsible for the 60 window should the patients not pay their premiums. Why my current doc refuses ACA insurance.
