The only people who are deserving of free healthcare are those who have given their health or their limbs for the service of our country.

Im not talking about free healthcare, im talking about tax funded healthcare for all citizens. That makes healthcare accessible to everyone who pays taxes as a service provided by the government. There is no incentive here not to treat people because if there is a budget surplus for whatever reason it does not go into the pockets of anyone. This solution will allso be a lot cheaper for everyone instead of paying ridiculously high insurance premiums. Ofcourse this system isnt perfect and has some inherant problems, but systems of natinalised healthcare seem to function a damn sight better than privatized ones.
