I take it you believe health care is a right, not a privilege.

I believe the American people have a right to ACCESS health care. I do NOT believe that we have a right to steal from others to pay for that care. Nor do I believe we have a right to enslave our Medical Providers.

IF the Founding Fathers believed this was a 'right' they would have mentioned it in the US Constitution. They did not. Nor did they say anyplace in that Document that we had the right to take from others to help ourselves.

Even things so basic as food, clothing and shelter are NOT a right.

God helps them that help themselves.

And it's a very good thing that the American people are the most generous people on earth. We have provided so much for so many in not only this country but for most countries of this world.

And BTW, for most of my adult life, in addition to raising a family, owning my own small but successful business for 20+ years employing several people and helping countless others, and have worked and helped to support several charities, plus one major 501c3 that is totally dedicated to patriotism and helping others.

How about you?

And yes, as you mentioned, I do this every day. We ALL are so very fortunate to live in the best country in the world!

Thank your lucky stars you live in the USA. A little patriotism please.
