If you look at SS you see the reason for the forced coverage. How many 70/80 year olds would be scraping chewing gum off bank floors if it wasn't for SS? The biggest failure in the Galveston private SS was allowing the people to "lump sum" their benefit at 65 who then go broke and on welfare.

You can say what you want but this country is not going to allow old people to starve or sick people to not have access to health care. So the pragmatic best way to handle it is to have the most rational solution to the problem. The Swiss seem to have the best health care system out there.
