I don’t think it’s good that we talk about this in such politically misleading terminology.
When you tell people they have a right to healthcare, fine that’s not a perfect statement, but more importantly, when they don’t get the health care that they think they were promised, that’s not just good, that’s bad.
I think it’s really important for politics to be honest because that’s the only way for society to have honest discussions about the trade-offs and balances that they are looking to make.
It’s not perfect being the enemy of the good. This is flat out bad.
