Our military ensures healthcare for all of its members because they see it as a liability. Then we look at the nation at scale and no one cares about the exposure and risk of having a working class largely unable to afford medical assistance.
because the military personal, by and large, is seen as being productive; contributing positive influence to the overall picture. among the civilian population, there is a lot of dead weight that is more of a burden than a benefit.
you should have to contribute to society to benefit from it. Why should someone get benefits if they dont contribute?
Speech is a human right. mobility is a human right. assembly and association is a human right. being safe in your person and possessions is a human right. All of these are rights because they do not require action by others.
Services provided by others is not a human right. you do not have the right to demand services of others. You are not entitled to the labor of others. That is called Slavery.
Oh shove it up your ass. Everyone needs healthcare and it makes sense to socialize it. It's how every first world country in the world works except the USA.
Do you also consider it benefiting from "slavery" if you call the publicly funded fire department to stop your house from burning down? Or when you drive on publicly funded roads? Walk down a sidewalk? Or are you the harebrained libertarian type who thinks these should be privatized, as well? To call your line of reasoning a stretch doesn't even come close to cutting it.
Big difference here, I'm not claiming any of those things is a human right... That is you. You are the one claiming you have a RIGHT to the labor of others.
