Being a conservative leaning libertarian, I obviously don't support universal healthcare. But would it be acceptable if it existed, but the ONLY people who had to pay taxes to support it would be people who wanted it. Everyone else would get normal privatized healthcare. But certain people can choose to have government healthcare, and only those people have to have higher income taxes. And the rest of the population would still have private healthcare, but not have to pay higher income taxes. That way the poor people get healthcare and the non-poor people can still have economic freedom. What are your thoughts on this?
Of course there would be rules. Like people couldn't switch willy-nilly so that way a poor person can't select not to do it, then when he gets sick, decide to do it. There would be rules like you can only change from socialist healthcare to non socialist healthcare and back again once every 5 years, or once you make the decision, you can never go back.
