| Message | if we where to keep a nationalized heath care system, this bill does not make sense. We will pay for an operation, but not the frugs needed to recover from it, or the drugs that would make it unnecessary in the first place. Add private care and we would support. |

| Message | To save on bureaucracy, the health care system should treat everyone equally. The rich bear most of the cost in any case, through taxation. |

| Message | No objection to partial private care, and maintaining health insurance for the low income. The middle class bear the cost too, through taxation, and their taxes should not be paying for free benefits of the well off. |

| Message | No. It's either everybody or nobody. Discrimination on basis of income is wrong full stop. |
