| Message | we cant afford it. plus private clinics help the economy with taxes and taking some loads off our shoulders with citizens. we oppose, but not because we dont want it free, but because right now it hurts the economy. |

| Message | the money will be made back in other areas that don't affect the basic well-being of our citizens so much. along with education, a fully public health care system is one of the fundamental bases of an equal and just society. |

| Message | Private healthcare often distorts the medical labour market, taking physicians, surgeons and nurses away from public hospitals. Also, it inflates the price of pharmaceuticals, because private companies are able to pay over-the-odds for rare or expensive drugs. |
