Health Care Is a Basic Right

Health care is a basic right. Our current system is convoluted and unethical and should go the way of gladiator games. We can spar and battle in the free market in many arenas, but when we get sick we should all have care-not just the lawyers, bankers, politicians, and others who can afford it. We like the free market, but we shouldn't let people die in the street-not in this country. Lucius Schoenbaum, Letter to the Editor
