[quote]Because there's no guarantee and it operates on the naive assumption that everybody is generous and kind. Let's test your theory. Let's assume that all 1,600,000 people who will be diagnosed with cancer this year create a "Pay My Medical Bills" post on gofundme.com. Do you really think everybody would be generous to help all 1,600,000 with cancer? And that's just cancer! There are many other very expensive diseases out there.[/quote] Well we can't save everyone unfortunately. Neither socialism or capitalism will fix that.

You're right, we can't save everyone, but a socialist country like Australia or Norway will save MORE people than a Capitalist country like the United States. Leaving healthcare up to charity is seriously the worst idea ever.

This isn't the industrial revolution we know better now. Give people a little more credit man. Not everyone is an evil piece of shit. But I'm telling you man taxing the shit out of people who barely make 6 figures isn't gonna work. We have 8 years of Obama to prove that.
