re: #661 Gus 802

So if health care is not a right then staying alive is not a right. What if you go further and say that being health is not a right? What if we extend that and say that there is no right to clean air and clean water. After all, remaining healthy requires a healthy environment.

In that case than environmental control is tied in with health care. Thus becoming ill due to toxins and requiring health care is not a right? Sounds like something Ron Paul would support.

I’m not sure if you are arguing that health care is a right (the right to enter contracts is a natural right), or if society is required to provide health care to you (a legal right).
