Looks like I struck a nerve.   Again, I do not regret the care your brother recieves from the government & our tax dollars.  It's interesting that you insinuate that your other brother & father got so much free care from their health care providers.  Or did they?   More likely, as uninsured patients undergoing extensive medical treatments, the cost of their care was passed along to the rest of us thru rising medical costs, or indigent care funds from tax dollars, or otherwise absorbed as losses by the hospitals they were treated in.

A quick search reveals that a quad-bypass costs between $30,000 - $200,000, followup physical therapy is $50-$350 per session, and meds are several hundred per month.   The costs of treating Pancreatic cancer range from $50,000 to $200,000, not including follow-up medications that can run up to $8000 per month..   If your family is well off enough to write a check for these amounts, you are indeed a lucky fellow, but I suspect you have just given us examples of how your family has benefitted greatly from government programs you so despise.

If you really are confident that everyone can count on free medical care, you can cancel your family's policies and have at it.  By your reasoning, it will save you loads of cash.

Meanwhile, you have still not explained why your brother's life is worth more than my wife's.
