Corporatist dickbag.

Wow, "First and most important. We have to throwaway the notion that healthcare is a right."

What kind of conniving evil rhetoric is this? o_O?

Fact #1: Everyone gets sick.
Fact #2: Most who become sick wants to recover quickly. Many require more knowledge or assistance to recover completely.
Fact #3: Humans are a social, care-taking species by nature.

Humans can't function well without other humans.
We're bound by hard wiring in our brains to care.
Therefore, the moral obligation to provide for the optimal health of everyone whenever we may need it is clear and apparent.

It's a right because when most can't maintain health, society goes to shit.
[Just like when they can't freely speak, or work, or learn, or marry.]

Health care can be a legal right. That is, a right granted to you by the law.

Then there are natural rights, such as speech, labor, liberty, etc. Health care cannot be a natural right, because medical services aren't inherent within us. You may have a right (that is a legal claim) to medical services, but it'll never be a natural right such as speech, belief, etc. because those are inherent to you.

That's me not taking a stand on this debate, by the way.
