Does a nation have the responsibility to provide viable access of health insurance/care to all of it’s citizenry, or should it just be ‘every man for himself’? Is adequate affordable health insurance a right, or merely a privilege? ‘Steve points out this very question.

When ‘…Clue’ summarizes “Healthcare is not a right. It is a business”, he seems to be reflecting the ‘every man for himself’ spirit. Not sure how this gels with our soldiers who volunteer, fight and die for ‘the group’ and not themselves. But, to his stead, at least ‘…Clue’ expresses his belief forthright. Our Presidential candidates should do the same. Whatever stance they announce, should be the one they will account for. ‘…Clue’ offers the pejorative exaggeration that ‘clueless’ Americans are expecting totally free and unlimited healthcare and want him to pay for it. There seems to be nowhere else to fund subsidies from, since Bush’s near trillion-dollar deficit has drained our economy.
