Socialized medicine...

If you think socialized medicine will work, answer me these questions.

If everybody gets health care, that means that no matter how much a person smokes, overeats, fails to exercise, or rots his body with drugs or alcohol, other Americans are expected to pick up the costs.

How is that right?

This is directly analagous to guaranteeing Americans a job. No matter how late someone shows up to work, or how little work he actually performs, other employees are obligated to accept wages that are too low so that the employer is able to pay the worker who produces little to no work.

Don't both of these scenarios violate the private property rights of employers and workers?

Do you recognize that the time a doctor spends treating a patient is a part of that doctor's life?

Doesn't that mean obligating a doctor to treat a patient means that the doctor becomes a slave to the State?
