Universal healthcare has become a very popular topic as of late. Many people believe that having healthcare is something that all human beings are entitled to, and I can certainly understand and appreciate the place of compassion the thought is coming from. Universal healthcare is grounded in the grounds of morality.

The tricky part comes into play due to the fact that these medical technologies and such cost money. The equipment needs to be engineered and built, the doctors themselves need to be paid, the hospital buildings requirement maintenance… yet another cost.

I would hope everyone agrees that being smart with your money is a wise choice when it comes to something as aggressive as universal healthcare. I wanted to give my thoughts on how to make universal healthcare happen in a moral way.
