Govt Health Care

Tax supported national health care programs are a really horrible idea..

Why should responsible citizens who eat right, exercise, and take care of themselves have to bear the same burden of the national bill as those who smoke, drink, and eat like shit?

The beauty of the free enterprise system and a free market, is that people's actions affect THEM.  Having the community foot the bill for people's health care is a departure from a society with a healthy respect for individual accountability.

I don't deem rich people evil by wanting to care for their relatives, but some sort of levelling must be used, or the cycle will accumulate a very segregated society. Social movement is of course facilitated by empowering employers, creating a flexible market for undemanding, low-paying jobs and enthusing entrpreneurship. These are often factors the right wants to implement. But when women and certain minorities have a tougher time getting jobs and when schools vary so immensely in quality, there is an unfair disadvantage for many. I'm not in favor of affirmative action, but somehow changes must be made. I know private schools are better than public schools, and also that the teacher's union is an obstacle, but this situation is so fucking complex. I'm but 17, and not even an american.
