You have to be careful with health care, otherwise socialism will creep in.

Everyone knows that socially paid things are wrong, and that everything should be private.

No one wants public fire departments, schools, legal systems, police, etc etc. Only socialist countries do this.

Don't be so glib.

Where I live, we have private fire departments because the government one's are not maintained and the ambulances are being used as taxis.

Socialism + corruption (and that the only kind we get) is way worse than you can imagine. Especially for the poor.
