Question

Affordable Care Act and the costs and benefits to society of making at least some minimum care available to everyone in the country. The law does not say that there is a right to health care. And there is no legal right to health care in the United States.

Is there a moral right to health care, in your view? Is it a basic good, like education, that a just society should provide to all its members? Or is it simply a commodity, like a car or cell phone, that you can have only if you can pay for it?
Do you believe that there is a political right to health care, one grounded in the political values of the United States, such as justice and equality?
