Health Care: Bernie Sanders vs Rand Paul

YouTube has a video Health Care: Sanders vs Paul. I don’t want to bias you in any way, but I must say that I have always considered Ron and Rand Paul to be complete fools. I think I have finally found the evidence to prove it to even the most biased person.


Rand Paul’s argument is so fallacious, I don’t know how anybody could fall for it. Health care as a right does not mean you have a right to demand that a specific doctor should provide you with health care. It means that the health care system should find access to health care for you no matter what your financial means are. Paul even agrees that the system does do that to a large extent without enslaving doctors. Medicare for all would be Bernie Sanders’ better way of providing the health care you have a right to.

If Rand Paul applied his logic to diagnosing your illnesses where he cannot even figure out what one thing does and does not imply about another thing he would be a very poor doctor.

I see that Rand Paul does not only use faulty logic about fractional reserve banking. Here he applies it to health care, too. What else is he using faulty logic for?
