[Truth]

When we speak of the government "providing" healthcare and other services we should keep in mind that the government has no resources other than what it confiscates from the taxpayers. Therefore, in either case, the taxpayers are footing the entire bill.

Anything that is funded by the public is saturated with fraud This fraud is not limited to recipients although this group defrauds with great zeal. It includes providers (doctors, hospitals, etc.). If medicare and medicaid were privatized, there would likely be less opportunity for abuse.

Of course, as a taxpayer, I'm footing the bill either way.
