Of course you do, you're a collectivist and you'll happily (and violently) force everyone into your scheme.
What I have no problem with is having choices in a free marketand voluntary agreements between principles i.e. no men with guns extracting payment for a service not used.
What ARE you talking about? Can you actually address the questions posed? Maybe you don't like to answer them? I will ask again - are you happy paying for the fire brigade to tend to 'other' people? Or if you like are you happy paying for teachers to teach 'other' peoples kids?
Yet billions of people live without constant medical care.
Medical care goods are services are products purchased to satisfy your wants and desires. There is nothing necessary about them.
A Porsche is a product purchased to satisfy wants and desires - same as medical care.
Probably not the best analogy, unless you know of someone who died because they couldn't buy a Porsche
Healthcare is pretty much a Right right now and it extends to citizens, tourists and illegal aliens alike. It is called the Emergency Room. The only thing is once they patch you up it is all about how you are going to pay for it but this thread is about healthcare not health insurance.

I think fire services, education, etc, should be private and funded by the end user. Same thing I said before, but maybe you'll understand better said this way.
Some people never go to a doctor/NP, etc. and eventually die peacefully while sleeping.
My mom is currently will be 92 on May 1. A life-long RN in a county hospital medical/surgical unit, her view is much of the time people get well despite their medical care.
Aside from childbirth and cataract surgery, she's seen a doctor maybe 5 times in her entire life. She's never had a mammogram or colonoscopy. She shakes her head at seniors who schedule their life around thrice-weekly doctors visits that do little except provide for the mortgage payments of the practice's employees.

Let me get this straight - you think people should only pay for the fire brigade when they need a fire putting out?
Seems that in your version of society that's the only way you could get one, doesn't it?
People voluntarily cooperating? It goes on all the time and every minute of the day, why would the creation roads be exempt from such cooperation?
