>> Al, the issue is NOT whether health care is a "right." Obtaining health care has always been a right, either implied or explicitly stated in various laws. I think the question is whether those who are not paying for their own health care have an entitlement, or right, to the best health care in the world. There are actually a couple of other alternatives -- a) Provide those who are on the public dole with a "reasonable" level of care, or b) Bring the quality of all health care down to the level attainable by those who are on the public dole. The legislation that passed the Senate does (b) -- insures that the wealthy will receive no better care than the indigent. There are numerous problems with it, not the least of which is a fundamental lack of fairness -- those who sit at home watching Oprah have a "right" to the same care as a guy who goes to the office every day.
