There are a whole raft of reasons as to why I think nationalized insurance & health care are a baaaaad idea. This article touches on a few of them. But, to keep it simple, I think I will stick to the basics. For example, how is health care or insurance a God-given right? Ergo, where is that right in our Constitution? It is not. Legislating it into a 'right' is not going to place our country onto the road to social utopia. Indeed, just the opposite will happen as this program, and others like it will beggar us all and be the demise of our republic. The only thing utopian about the outcome will be that we are all equally shafted!
