I am not pedantic. I am precise. People need to understand that other people pay for their treatment and it does not just happen.
People know and understand that - that's why countries with high tax rates aren't seeing people throw tea in the water on a regular basis. They understand that they have representation and a share in the value that comes having those relatively high tax rates.
No one thinks that though so I'm not sure who you're trying to preach to.
How? All I want is to replace the term free healthcare with socialized healthcare. All the other arguments here only exist because people assume opinions that where never voiced.
