You're wrong my friend - anyone, regardless of the amount of money they have in the bank, regardless of whether or not they have medical insurance, can get access to a doctor FREE, can go into hospital and have whatever medical treatment is necessary FREE. It works and gives dignity and care to those who need it.
Private insurance is only really interested in "healthy" people who can afford to pay premiums - it's out to make a profit from a persons misfortune of suffering from ill health.
If you believe in the law of the jungle where the fittest survive,then Army1 you are correct in your statement - if however you believe in a civilised society based on Christian values then you look out for your neighbour - the second most important commandment is "love your neighbour". A society that does not care for its sick and needy is a selfish doomed society that is bound to fail.
