re: Why can every other first world country have healthcare for all?

What about other things payed by "socialized" programs like the Interstate System?

The interstate system was developed for the military to move throughout the country more easily. You pay for a portion of it every time you gas up. The more gas you use, the more you pay for the interstate. Whether you make $10,000,000 or $10,000, you pay the same rate based on how much you drive because that's the wear and tear you're putting on the road.

frick those roads, go to Lowe's and buy some asphalt...make you're own road.

---

The government is incentivised to protect its citizens. Moving the military from coast to coast easily fulfills one of the duties of the federal government. Please do not confuse "limited" government and anarchy.

Why do my tax dollars have to pay for your road?

---

If you don't buy gas, you'll spend almost nothing on the roads, depending on which state you're in and how they fund them.


How much of your healthcare would I pay for if I use none myself?


I don't think you could have chosen a worse example.
