Single payer = indentured servitude for those that work in the healthcare industry.
The left truly are an immoral people.
Plus there's the legality of the idea: There isn't a thing in the enumerated powers of the Constitution that grants the federal government the power to run healthcare. You'll need an amendment. Good luck with that.
So if you do get your amendment, can we all look forward to VA-like care?
Monumentally stupid idea.
Single payer = indentured servitude for those that work in the healthcare industry.
How so?
The only difference is who pays.
If you're a healthcare worker, you should be free to work for a wage or a fee you believe is adequate for the labor you're provide, just like any industry.
But with single payer, you all of a sudden have the right to demand that my sister, who is a nurse, care for you.
Using government-backed compulsion to force someone to labor on another's behalf....perhaps you're right, that's not indentured servitude, that's slavery.
And WHO pays is also a moral issue. Forcing me to fund your scheme is simple theft. You should have no more a right to take my money because you're sick anymore than I should be able to rob the grocery store because I'm hungry.
