why the health care services are considered the responsibility of the government in a democracy
Answers
In a democracy the government does what individuals or ‘for profit’ companies cannot do. In general they are compassionate with their people, they care more about the safety and well being of their people, than they do about anything else.
Clearly health care cannot be provided by an individual, so would “for profit” or “not for profit” companies do the job? One quick note “not for profit” does not mean that the company is not all about profit. Most of them are, it just means there are no shareholders looking to take money out, the managers and staff can take out all they like, and have whatever benefits they like. Some “not for profits” have benefits which rival the US Senate and House healthcare benefits - in other words the best available, anywhere.
Profit motives in health care in my opinion are abhorrent. Really we are talking about the poor here, because well off are always OK.
I do not believe a civilized society should allow families to chose between health care and rent or eating. I do not believe children should die from curable diseases because of choices the parents make. I do not believe that families should go bankrupt because someone became sick. I do not believe people should be encouraged to forgo preventative treatment then, turn up at the emergency room with a critical illness.
Everyone should get preventative and basic healthcare as a birthright, a democracy is the correct and only place that can provide that.
If you think I’m wrong, I would love to take you on a tour of of the suffering in the USA, the death and the misery might make you change your vote. Or just Google it yourself.
