    Quote: The moral corruption that accompanies allowing one person to sponge off another is mirrored in biology.
    Answer: The phrase 'Global Village' or 'Am I my brothers' keeper' come to mind. The author one might suppose is playing the Devils' advocate in that he believes in 'every man for himself' as opposed to the more Socialist bend of 'no man left behind'. The thing about Socialist medicine / Universal Health Care is that everyone has healthcare and there is noONE without healthcare and the healthcare of ONE does not overrule the healthcare of All. Which means the ability to access the BEST offered in THAT specific country is available to everyone. ONE might consider that HE alone is paying for the rest of the countries healthcare or he can believe his INPUT in the collective well is the same as everyone elses. Now how MUCH he pays into the collective healthcare will be determined by how much he earns. The author seems to have a problem with how much he pays into healthcare. I suppose we could give the author the job of mopping up vomit in the healthcare setting or any other gross job which HAS to be done to see how much his CASH input to the collective healthcare is worth as opposed to cleaning up gross substance IN the collective well / village ? Imho.
