Thanks. Interesting. Don't see how it could be otherwise.

While I have your attention on this matter and given your first hand experience...

In a socialized health care system, citizens have a right to whatever health care they may need. Does that not imply a duty of care assumed and undertaken by the taxpayers? Is there an inherent understanding of that framework? Is there a moral consideration or a right in there? Or is it merely a practical way of paying for and administrating health care?

It seems inconsistent to me that a society would undertake/assume a duty of care wrt provision of health care for its citizens yet not have an individual duty of care for one's immediately fallen neighbor.
