I’m all for universal health insurance, as long as everyone who gets it is a US citizen, and he/she can pass a physical fitness test.

I get it, but with the same argument you can say that if you don’t pay enough taxes, the fire dept won’t come to your house.

We live in a country where there are social programs. Food stamps for example: it’s cheaper for us, productive members of society, to subsidize a portion of the (Legal citizen) population’s nutritional needs, than to have starving people robbing us in the night. Jailing then all and then feeding them is inherently more expensive thank throwing them a proverbial bone.

We should have physical fitness tests anyway, as a healthier population would reduce everyone’s overall medical insurance costs.
