Healthcare is provided by doctors, nurses, and a plethora of other people throughout the medical industry. Do you believe you're entitled to force them into serving others against their will? Do you believe you're entitled to forcing people to pay for your poor life choices against their will.

I run 15+ miles a week, lift weights, and eat right. I do all this to stay healthy. I haven't had to see a doctor in years. Should I have to pay for someone's health who chooses to be unhealthy?

But until Obamacare, it was legal for insurance to refuse to sell to you, and then get you blacklisted from the entire industry.

Obamacare made it illegal to deny people insurance like that.

Also, """""preexisting conditions"""""" means type-2 diabetes, COPD, etc. It's not everyone else's job to pay for fatasses and dying smokers.
>>
>>132628002
Pre Obamacare:
If you have a job, most large companies will pay for up to half of the costs of your health insurance. If you don't work at a large company, or don't work at all, or don't work full time, or don't have a high enough rank at the company, you need to buy insurance on your own, entirely out of pocket (Which is very hard if you are poor, which you would be if any of those apply to you).

Even so, insurance companies could refuse to pay because you were sick in the past (called a pre-existing condition) or could put lifetime limits on the amount they would pay, or charge you vastly more than someone else for the same product.

If you still can't get insurance, and you are elderly, or a pregnant woman, or a child, or a military vet, the government will cover you.

Otherwise, a single hospital trip will bankrupt you because you pay millions.

After Obamacare:
Every company with at least 50 employees needs to pay for half of the insurance to all of their employees who work at least 30 hours a week.

Insurance companies cannot deny you if you are willing to pay, they can't cap your coverage, there are limits to how much they can increase your payments, and they can't charge you more than someone else who is the same age. You can still go buy it yourself out of pocket if you don't meet those employment requirements.

However, because that would obviously bankrupt insurance companies, (After all, who would get insurance ahead of time when they are healthy if they have to give it to you even if you get sick?) everyone is required to get insurance at all times, or else pay tax penalties.

If you can't afford insurance, then the government will pay for part of the costs. If you are too poor even for that, the government will pay for everything - unless you live in a state with a Republican governor, in which case the government will not pay for it if you are too poor. (thanks to the supreme court allowing states to opt out of that last provision).
>>
>>132619626
no, i want healthcare to be legal just like i want guns to be legal. if you can afford a gun or healthcare, go get it. if you can't afford a gun or healthcare, you can't have it. and you can't democratically vote to steal from the rich so you can buy a gun, same with healthcare.
>>
>>132628002
>>132630030
New Republican Plan post Obamacare:

Get rid of the requirement to have insurance. Prevent insurance companies from going bankrupt by allowing states to opt out of the protections (like lifetime limits) and by giving insurance companies massive tax breaks. These tax breaks are paid for by the government stopping payments for poor people.

>>
>>132630941
No one likes being told they have to buy something.

People in Republican states who in many cases very literally cannot buy insurance (Again, due to their state opting out) are extremely pissed and blame Obama.

Most of this hatred is due to the fact that the law is really, really, really complex (It does shitloads more, like specific coverage requirements, panels to determine limits on insurance agencies, security requirements, tax changes, regulation changes, laws regarding healthcare exchanges, etc) Thus almost no one (including me) knows the entire law. People don't like what they don't understand, especially when /pol/ or Fox news tries to sum it up in one line of "It will make your insurance more expensive!"

The reason it's complex is because it's essentially impossible to balance "Everyone should be able to buy insurance" with "Insurance companies shouldn't go bankrupt covering everyone"

A gun shop owner absolutely has the right to refuse to sell a weapon to a person he deems unsafe. In the exact same way, a health insurance provider can refuse to provide service to a person it deems a massive drain to it's program.

This does not stop the dangerous person from seeking a weapon elsewhere, or the fat cancerous diabeetus-riddled Floridian from seeking insurance elsewhere.

Also, why should any private company be forced to subsidize your ruined body? If they can come up with a program that works for both parties, fine. Should the government be forcing companies to provide services they don't want to provide?

Obamacare is an unhappy medium between full private coverage and single payer healthcare

Because then the person gets sick, gets treatment anyway, doesn't pay, and everyone's prices go up.

Unless you start holding doctors at gunpoint and make them rifle through people's pockets for insurance paperwork and credit cards before treatment and dumping them on the street if they don't have $100,000, that isn't a solution.

If given the choice would you be in favor of Obamacare or against it? From my experience single payer Healthcare costs tons of money (I live in one of the highest taxed countries in the world) but everyone including poor people can get decent Healthcare here, but it's quite a shock when the numbers are in front of you.
The setback is giving such an important financial influx to a government which manages it badly (corruption, waste etc) so I can see the benefits of private insurance as the cost for myself would go down (payed by my company).
Though in general I would like to be able to know that everyone can get his/her health taken care of at low costs.

Of course that is the solution, but then you have two options:

1. Price controls. Literally make things worse 100% of the times they are tried. (See: Venezuela)

2. Copy other countries and have single payer. As a single payer, the government would have stupendously massive negotiating power and could bring prices to rock bottom.

3. Take a chance and try massive deregulation, and pray it works. We have no evidence it has ever worked in the past, but it might. Or it might just completely collapse health care in the country entirely. But you know, it might work, after all, econ 101 says... (etc)

Stuck between a rock and a hard place.

OPee, I like the way youthink. Next step? since NIGGERSare committing 90% of the gun crime, lets just stop treating them. End of "gun strain" on the medical system.

No more white people coming when niggers and spics shoot each other, stab each other or beat each other to death.

No more paying for expensive white cops, firefighters, EMT, white paramedics, white nurses and doctors.

I love guns but that thing is actually retarded. What is the muzzle velocity of that thing? 700 fps? Plus that bullet probably starts tumbling the second it leaves the "barrel", I'm honestly amazed that you can't see the tip of the bullet protruding. That is quite a novelty you got there. I'd imagine an airsoft gun would probably have the same effectiveness as that thing at any range.

the reason why healthcare is a privilege is because it is a service that must be paid for

the people who support gun rights do not say that everyone should get a free gun. They should just be able to get one, you must still pay for it.

The people who say healthcare should be a right however, demand that it is given for free.

Access to a gun is a positive right, the same as freedom of speech. If I want to say something, it is up to me to say it, and nobody can be forced to listen to it, either. Likewise, I am given the right to purchase a gun, and if I want a gun, I must purchase it for myself, as nobody is obligated to purchase one for me.

In both cases, my ability to exercise my rights confers no negative externality to those around me, that is, nobody is obligated to do anything in order to provide me with my right.

Healthcare is a different sort of "right", one that by its very definition as such requires an entrenched state to force people to pay for the healthcare of others by way of taxation, which is the removal of capital from the citizenry by the state using force. Under those circumstances, if I have a "right" to healthcare, regardless of my ability to actually pay for it, what I *actually* have is a right to rely on the state to take other people's money away from them by threat of violence in order to pay for something that I otherwise cannot afford on my own. This is why the "right" to healthcare is anything but.

TLDR: Gun rights take nothing away from citizens who don't want to exercise them. Healthcare "rights" strip individuals of their capital without their consent to pay for something that others want but can't afford themselves.

US already has single payer, it's called VA. That works so very well doesn't it.

The problem is the ADA's boycott of lodge-serving physicians, combined with massive tortuous penalties for malpractice. Because of the first, the second becomes fair. Because of the two together, we have an anticompetitive market and an unbalanced supply and demand scale where the supplier gets to set the price.

Fix the first and wait 20 years to solve itself. But too many people will due first so we can't wait. And doctors don't like actually being accountable to patients so they'll lobby against the first again.

Healthcare is not a right. It is a service. Therefore it can be rationed. Calling the right of self-preservation is purely misleading, dishonest, manipulation.

Healthcare can have the following qualities: Quality, Affordability, Universality. You have to choose and compromise between the 3. And Universality seems the one not to worry about.

Western Countries spend more than 10% of thir GDP in healthcare. What must be adress is the cost of healthcare. Let's look at other sector of the market where prices are cut and quality is up. Any idea?

There is quite a bit of difference between a federal law taking away the rights of citizens because they have a criminal record (which most states also do, see: right to vote) and a private company deciding who is and isn't allowed to exercise their rights.

I guess you could argue that you have the right to provide yourself healthcare, but that's not really what you meant.

There are THREE political axes

Leftist = Believes in more redistribution of wealth, higher taxes, socialised and nationalised industries etc;

Rightist = Believes in lower taxes, freer markets, etc;

Authoritarian = Believes in more government control, more surveillance, more more police, etc;

Liberal = Believes in less government control, less police, less surveillance, etc;

Progressive = Believes in things like Pro-abortion, Pro-LGBT rights, Pro-Womens rights, Atheism, anti-gun, etc;

Traditionalist = Religious, anti- LGBT, anti- abortion, pro- gun, etc;

Any of the legitimate peer reviewed history journals.

History
The Historical Journal
The American Historical Review
The Journal of American History

Remember, he's trying to prove objective facts, and yet he doesn't have anything other than opinion pieces as evidence.

>In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, one of the primary sources of health care and health insurance for the working poor in Britain, Australia, and the United States was the fraternal society.

Is an objective statement. If it were true, there would surely be thousands of pages of evidence on it. Again, "The primary source of healthcare" is a pretty bold statement.

Owning a gun isn't a right. Being able to purchase and posess a gun without others preventing you from doing so is a right.

Receiving free healthcare isn't a right, just as receiving a free gun isn't a right. Purchasing healthcare or accepting healthcare that is offered to you is a right.

Okay you really want to make that argument? Lets make healthcare a right just how guns are a right since you want to play this game...

Gun owners (not counting Law Enforcement, and Military for the obvious reason it is a tool necessary to perform their job at times) are not just given a gun by the government to any citizen that wants one.

The right to bear arms does not mean I can just walk into a gun shop, or gun show with empty pockets, and be like "I need a free gun man, I got no gun help!"

The right to health care does not mean I can just walk into a hospital uninsured, and be like "Hey doc, let me get all the best pain killers you got. Also bust that periscope cam out, and stick it in my pooper I'm feeling randy!"

You want a gun, you pay for the gun.

You want medicine, you pay for medicine.

Not a complex concept.

>Gun sellers can't just go "Based on this person's history, we think he shouldn't be allowed to buy a gun ever."
They totally can. Gun sellers can simply decline sales for any reason, they don't even need to say why. They think you are buying it for someone else who can't buy guns? They can decline the sale? You seem suspicious? They can decline the sale. You are a nigger? They can decline the sale.

Healthcare is a service. Saying healthcare is a right is like saying eating is a right therefore grocery stores should be free.

Healthcare is not banned. You have every right to purchase the services of one of the fine medical professionals currently working in this country, but they also have the right to charge you for that service.

Let's use a real world example.

A CT scanner costs about $100,000 in the U.S.

A CT scan itself costs about $1,000 in the U.S.

A CT scan in India costs about $50.

So, if "someone would just sell it for cheaper" why does no one in the U.S. sell CT scans for cheaper?

There are thousands of hospitals, and hundreds of thousands of radiologists and doctors, so why does not a single one sell it cheaper?

Could it possibly be that your theory is entirely wrong?

>>132647752
My point is that you don't get to exclude a source because you don't like it. If you have a grievance with the publication or it's citations, then document the error and publish it in a peer reviewed journal and let the world know. You don't get to attack the messenger for not living up to your documentation standards by claiming exclusivity on historical or scientific fact. You either refute the claim directly, or you stop attacking it. That's the only basis of intellectual discourse that is acceptable in literature.

Just because you refuse to read the essay and it's citations by University publishing houses and peer reviewed journal does not make it false.

Stop acting like a blithering anti-intellectual liberal and participate in discourse, or shut the fuck up.

I'll accept a refutation of the claim. You pretending that nobody remembers is directly contradicted by an article from 1993, republished hundreds of times over the last 25 years. Now EDUCATE me on why Roderick T Long's essay is incorrect, not on why you think it isn't remembered when it very clearly is.

If your stance is still on "memory" then I'll ask: "how does history remember FDR?"

I'm not. I'm excluding sources because they aren't real sources. Again, literally anyone can publish their own book and say whatever they want. It's not peer reviewed.

I'm saying, "This guy has absolutely no scientific sources, yet is making grand claims why? And, why is it so hard to verify anything he says?" And you are saying "BUT BUT THE CATO INSTITUTE!"

> Now EDUCATE me on why Roderick T Long's essay is incorrect

I don't have to. You assume the Null hypothesis until proven otherwise. If he can't undeniably prove that this massive, well known, public, primary healthcare system existed, we can just safely assume it doesn't. Again, "why has no one but Roderick Long, and people who read his essay heard of this" is a pretty basic question. And a pretty damn important one if your claim is that this system covered the entire working class.

Otherwise, let me tell you about the history of the Earth/Mars war in the 1970s, I've got sources from UFO Quarterly to tell you all about it.

The risk pools are separated so the poor fags in it are still making insurance companies lose money. A lot have backed out and half the non profits went bankrupt because people who need treatment all the time are bad for an insurance business. There was insurance that didn't deny existing conditions before, it was just far more expensive and comparable to insuring a car when you've had lapsed insurance or a house that's run down.

No, incorrectly used guns are a strain on the healthcare system. If put six hollow points in a niggers chest, all it will cost is an ambulance and a cremation. Pretty cheap compared to the cost of taking care of someone for decades whose diet is primarily fried chicken and grape soda. And that's just for the ones who live free lives til middle age. Those yung bucks who get put in prison early cost society a whole lot more than a magazine of bullets. Basic /pol/conomics, friend.

You have a right to healthcare the same as you have a right to own a gun.

The message is just criticizing capitalism because just because you have a right to something doesn't mean it's owed to you free of charge from someone else.

Marxist argument that twists the truth to appease liberals. Subversion tactics at their finest appeal to emotions and stomp on the truth in the name of progress.

The only legitimate use of force is in defense of individual rights -- life, liberty, and justly acquired property -- against aggression.
All people have the right to self-defense and they may agree to be aided by any other individual or group.
Individuals have the right to keep and bear arms.
People should not be prosecuted for exercising their right to self-defence.
Government should not restrict, register, or monitor the ownership, manufacture, and transfer of firearms and ammunition.
People should be free to choose which products and services they wish to purchase and not be forced to pay for something against their will.
Individuals should be free to determine the level of health insurance they want, if any.
Health insurance companies should not be regulated by the government.
Provision of health care should not be socialized.
Health care should be provided by the free market.
Socialized welfare programs should be phased out and replaced with a private voluntary system based on insurance, charity, and mutual aid.

Well healthcare IS a privilege.
You are not born with it.
Just ask anybody in the 3rd world.
Besides, I paid 3K in taxes last financial year, got $200 back... It's not FREE healthcare, although there are freeloaders.

On the other hand, we are all born with the right to defend ourselves. Not just us, every animal. It's our governments that took that right from us in most 1st world countries.

I apologize on behalf of all canadians who dont understand how our Healthcare system works. Who don't understand that it's not free, it gets funded by our tax dollars, and the only reason we can afford to put as much money into it as we do is because we live right next taxi America and are protected by them in every sense of the word. America has the most powerful army on the planet which gives us the luxury of spending jack shit on military and using that money for other stuff.

I would also like to add that our hospitals are abysmally under staffed and full of immigrants who can barely speak English. You will wait on average 2 hours to see a doctor in a Canadian hospital, sometimes it will take as long as 8 hours if it's really busy.

They can't:

Charge you more for a gun because of your gender (gender discrimination in insurance prices)
Send your information to other gun sellers to ensure you don't get a gun (blacklisting)
Decide that "Other people like you misuse a gun, so you can't have a gun, or have to pay more than anyone else, even though your record is clean" (risk pools)
Retroactively take away your gun because they discovered you used a gun before purchase (pre-existing conditions)
Enforce a contract to limit your gun purchases to only once per year (Enrollment periods)
Put a lifetime cap on the number of times you are allowed to fire your gun, and take your gun away if you break it (Lifetime caps)
Put you in a "high risk pool" of gun owners and watch you so they can take away your gun if you misuse it. (high risk pooling)
Insist you use a different gun for the first 5000 bullets per year before you are allowed to fire your new gun (Deductables)

Etc.

They can say "I don't want to sell you a gun". A right a baker doesn't have. They can certainly alert fellow business owners of someone they don't want to sell guns to and that's more power than a baker these days. You've confused healthcare and health insurance the entire thread.

And you know nothingb about gun laws either, more restrictive states do a form of each of your shit analogies. I had to be background checked to get a permit to buy specific types of guns, that lasts only one year, after which I must reapply to buy guns, and checked again at each sale, which can be refused at any time. If I misuse a gun you can be damn sure they're taken away, stop being an ignorant faggot.
