No I don't think healthcare is a right that should be provided by the government. Every citizen should have the freedom to choose the healthcare that they would like, and not be forced to pay into something that will be expensive and poor quality, or forced to foot the bill for some unproductive person in society. The governments only purpose should be to provide and maintain the human rights and liberties for it's citizens. That's it.

Then you would expect the American system to outperform comparable systems at a lower cost...but the data shows the exact opposite. Americans have worse health outcomes and pay more TAX DOLLARS than comparable systems. Americans are getting terrible value and a libertarian system won't improve it.
Ask yourself this...would an average Canadian or European swap their coverage for an American plan? No? Then why do you think it's any good?
