13. I am perfectly aware that my health care is not free.
I fully understand that it is paid for by taxes. Just like free public schools are paid for by taxes. I apologize in using that as an example of how a point of view would influence a decision on an important issue as Universal health care. But again IMO, a significant number of people who espouse support for Universal health care, will choke when the tax man comes to collect for it. Particularly if they have an existing health care plan that costs them less than they may be taxed for.
