What Can Cause A Libertarian To Support Government Health Care? It turns out immigration is the issue that can cause libertarians to throw up their hands and support universal health care. Shikha Dalmia with the Reason Foundation says the Senate health care bill is wrong to keep illegal aliens from buying insurance through the taxpayer funded health care exchange. "Undocumented aliens may therefore face the double bind of having to buy coverage but being priced out of the few legal avenues they have. This should trouble anyone not part of the Lou Dobbs fan club, but civil libertarians should find it particularly odious. At the same time the government tells Americans how they must spend their money, it will tell undocumented aliens where they can't spend theirs. Government intrusiveness combined with government discrimination is not a formula for social justice." |
