33. In my case 'Thanks to Nye Bevan, Brits now think health care is a right.'

Health care is a right. Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 26.

It took Labour to introduce the NHS. the Conservatives have lived with it but have found ways to tinker with it, privatize parts of it and erode it over the years. Republicans will always find ways to erode and do away with anything that looks like socialized medicine because it is completely against their ethics. Problem is this sense of absolute individualism is not good for society. The "I'm all right Jack, fuck you" attitude just stinks. It's also un-Christian.
