A person's health IS a right.

What is not is a right is public payment to care for and uphold that right for everyone else.

You want to be healthy? That's your right. You can exercise, eat healthy, not smoke or drink, etc. Those are your choices.

You want to be unhealthy? Thats your right too. You can eat bon-bons, lay around and get fat, diabetic , smoke up your lungs till you get cancer, drink till your liver dessicates and eat bacon till you clog your arteries. Those are also your choices.

To say that health care is a right, and that health care should NOT be a profit source for business, your saying that the doctors and nurses who take care of you should not be recompensed beyond a certain minimal level. Your saying that you have the RIGHT to make them use their knowledge on you for your benefit without them having benefit as well.

Personal health is a right. Publicly funded health care is trampling the rights of others who have to pay for your bad decisions.
