| Message | Mr. Speaker, We disagree with Articles One and Three. Article One forces people to depend on the government for their medicine, thus increasing spending. Article Three would destroy the health care industry. If the people do not like their private clinic, then they can come to a public one. We yield. |

| Message | This bill will not lead to the capitalists losing their profit based on the health of people. This will make sure that private health care clinics are treating their patients to the highest extent of care possible. Think about it, when people get sick then that's a loss to the capitalist health care system. We cannot allow the profit motive to be perverted in such a way when people's health is at stake. Article one is necessary because sometimes drugs for certain diseases are too expensive for a normal middle class family to afford, you should not have to choose between your health and your need to eat. Of course spending would be increased, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out, but it's going for a good cause, it will be a victory for the middle class families of Indrala. |
