Obama's Socialist "Reforms" for American Healthcare are Impractical and Immoral
- by Ron Pisaturo

Summary:

"There's no such thing as a 'right' to force others to provide one with health
care, cotton picking, sex, or any other service."

"Using the power of government to _confiscate and collect_ money that is earned
and owned by private citizens, put it all in a pot, and then literally _force_
some individuals to either provide - or to pay for- the medical services of
others (ie "universal health care") is not only impractical ( witness the
rationing of services and waiting lists of every socialized medical system in
the world ) but highly _immoral_.

Speaking as an ordinary doctor and an ordinary citizen, this is an
_extraordinary_ abuse of power by the goverment and gross violation of
individual rights.

For more of an elaboration of these concepts, see the beloe essay which presents
a compelling argument that:

".... the current crisis in American health care is the result of decades of
government interference and violations of individual rights in health insurance
and medicine.

The only moral and practical solution to the problem is _not_ more government
controls but instead to gradually and systematically transition to a
rights-respecting, fully free market in those industries.
