VneZonyDostupa,
what are you talking about? at one point, all of the US was is support of slavery. It took a VERY long time (hundred plus years) for slavery to end in the north.
New Jersey was the last northern state to officially end slavery, in 1804. That's roughly 30 years after the nation was founded (1776). One hundered plus does not equal thirty. Come to think of it, slavery officially ended nationwide in 1865, not even 100 years after our nation was founded.
What was your point, again?
Civil war? why are you suggesting the civil war? is there no US history before then? my my, you are a silly goose.
I addressed this above.
To claim it as a right is to suggest you can demand at your will. It is not your right to demand a service from another.
I claim healthcare is a right of every citizen. Thus, every citizen should be able to go to a government hospital and receive adequate (not VA-grade) treatment for emergent or life-altering/threatening conditions. No where in this statement is it implied that you could approach a doctor and demand he treat you, unless he works in such a facility. Get it now?
