If health CARE is not a right, then what happens to you, as the lowly street sweeper, that cannot afford the high premiums and deductibles charged by the private, for profit health INSURANCE corporations, have no money saved because it takes every penny of your lowly street sweeper pay just to feed, cloth and house you and your family, yet make just enough to not qualify for a subsidy, when you show up at the emergency room with the severe chest pains of a full blown heart attack? You will be treated with every available medical process for a heart attack or promptly shipped by ambulance or helicopter to the nearest medical facility that can just as if you had money or insurance because IT IS THE LAW! If you are not or turned away your survivors can SUE. Now, tell me that is not a right to medical CARE. Ever hear of EMTALA? If some can treat it as a right, why can't every one get to treat it as a right?

Government (we taxpayers) already pay for 64.7% of the cost of medical CARE in the US. Think Medicare (the elderly) and Medicaid (the poor), why because they are NOT profitable to the private, for profit health INSURANCE corporations with huge government subsidies. HR676 (Improved and Expanded Medicare for All) has been proven to save 95% of the taxpayers money. It is just a different way of financing health CARE than the patchwork, dishonest system we have now.
