It doesn’t surprise me that it’s the younger people advocating this; to be young is to be idealistic, and to be mature is to be realistic. Socialism doesn’t work, ask people living in countries with socialized medicine whether it has eliminated the problems or just created different ones. I’ll take our imperfect system any day. If we switched the focus to prevention (nutrition, exercise, other lifestyle changes) instead of looking for medication to treat the effects of an unhealthy lifestyle we would take away some of the power from greedy pharma and reduce the overall health care costs, thus driving down insurance costs. Giving tax payer funded health care to illegal aliens is insanity. I’m a nurse AND a taxpayer, and I’m tired of footing the bill for everything under the sun.
