So, a big story for the past couple weeks is that there's a sick baby in the UK who might recover with better treatment. The UK's single payer system doesn't allow for private options. The parents would like to fly the baby to the US for better treatment than the UK's single payer system is willing to provide. UK courts have repeatedly denied them the ability to do this, saying that the child must stay in the UK and die.
My opinion on this is that the worldwide trend is to have a public option alongside private options. When people in the world's acid attack capital say no, you (or your baby) has to die because I couldn't afford something better myself, they are playing with fire. Yes, richer people have more privileges, animals are not equal with each other, you're the ones who keep saying people are animals, get over it.
