Do people who get sick and cannot afford treatment deserve to die?

Don't get sick. I don't like being forced to pay for something I'm not using. I understand I will need it someday but I don't need it now.

Dis Ninja from da land o BIG DICK SWANGIN TOMMY DOUGS is onto something
There is literally no reason to not have universal health care, americans are just stupid victimy cucks. Its basically the most important aspect of the social contract with your government. I dont give a fuck about roads, I can lay asphalt myself but I cant do a triple bypass.
The fact its still debated by americans is proof they are stupider and more morally bankrupt than most other nations

If it's concluded that free healthcare should be a basic human right, should not also welfare be a basic human right, and even more so than healthcare? As in, if every single person deserves free health services, why shouldn't every person deserve free food/water/shelter services, regardless of their employment status or value to the world.

Wrong, doctors form an association which organizes a fee schedule both the government and the doctors can agree to.
Wrong, the doctors were forced by law to form an association and allow that body to negotiate with the government for the best price the government would allow. But you didn't answer my question.
Do you want the government to tell you how much you can earn for your services?

Yes, but not because it's a matter of "deserving" healthcare. I don't give a fuck if you deserve or don't deserve whatever. But the way it is currently handled is literally some borderline third world shit that should not be happening in supposedly 1st world America in 2020.
I remember hearing a long time ago about some wood shop worker who had an accident with a saw that cut 2 fingers, and the hospital essentially told him "pick one to keep" because he was uninsured so he couldn't afford to keep both.
That's fucked up. If there's a human being who knows how to stitch fingers around and I lose 2 fingers, the only barrier to solving this problem is Jéw gold... that's an artificial problem right there.

So where did you
hear this? Because that would be against the law for a hsopital to do in the US.

IDK. Some systems work well, others not so well.
The idea of the US federal government implementing a universal healthcare system is fairly comical.
