Oh...I know you want the government to be everyone's mommy and daddy. That's the Socialist way, after all.
The problem is, the cost is too great. And I'm not just talking about money.
The cost is too great? "Virtually all of Europe has either publicly sponsored and regulated universal health care or publicly provided universal healthcare. The public plans in some countries provide basic or "sick" coverage only; their citizens can purchase supplemental insurance for additional coverage. Countries with universal health care include Albania, Austria, Andorra, Belarus,[49] Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Moldova,[50] Monaco, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal,[51] Romania, Russia, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine,[52] and the United Kingdom.[53]"
I want the government to help those who need help, not be everyone's "mommy and daddy" that sounds ridiculous and is a pitiful attempt to attack my position. What cost other then money?
