human rights

The health care debate is being fought on the wrong front. All we need to answer is one question. Is access to health care a fundamental right of any human? Once you have decided this question there is no argument left to be had. If you answer "no" then there is no obligation to provide health care. If you answer "yes" then the only legitimate option is universal coverage paid for by a universal tax.

Either way, the current debate is a "hoax" that is distracting us, the American people, from looking at the real issue that confronts us. Namely, do we love our neighbors as a free people should?
