I don't know of any universal healthcare system in the world that uses slavery. What you do is have the government pay the salaries of the health workers, just like they do for every other public social service workers like police, fire, military, beat attorney etc. What makes health care so different to any of these?


I never said universal heathcare uses slavery. In fact I specifically said it doesn't

What said was claiming people "have a right to healthcare" requires slavery.

Universal Health Care != "right to healthcare"


And how about we actually pay for the schooling for doctors and nurses, so people want to go to medical school without incurring crippling debt?
