I wanna end the international embarrassment of the United States of America being the only major country on earth that doesn't guarantee health care to all people as a right, not a privilege.

Bernie Sanders

America must deal once and for all with an utterly irrational health care financing system that allows private interests to make billions in profits from the pain and suffering of their fellow citizens. America is the only country in the industrialized world that does not provide tax-supported universal health care coverage in some form.

Suzanne Gordon

Health care is a right, not a privilege.

Edward Kennedy

We will stand up for what is right, for what is fair and what is just. Health care is a right and not a privilege.

John Lewis

We believe that health care is a right, not a privilege.

Tom Perez

Make health care a right, not a privilege.

Ed Pastor

We have never seen health as a right. It has been conceived as a privilege, available only to those who can afford it. This is the real reason the American health care system is in such a scandalous state.

Shirley Chisholm

If you think you have the right to health care, you are saying basically that I am your slave. I provide health care... My staff and technicians provide it... If you have a right to health care, then you have a right to their labor.

Rand Paul

With health care, once you set yourself up as the source for people's health care, not insurance, you own them. That way you have total control over how they must live in order to qualify for health care. And that's what Marxists want. Marxists and leftists do not trust individuals. They have contempt individuals won't do the right thing, the right thing being defined by what Marxists want.

Rush Limbaugh

Health care is not a commodity or privilege, but a human right.

Julio Frenk

Health care is not a privilege. It's a right. It's a right as fundamental as civil rights. It's a right as fundamental as giving every child a chance to get a public education.

Rod Blagojevich

My personal feeling, if I can interject a political note, is that I don't think it is right that basic health care is a privilege. It shouldn't be. It should be a right of all human beings. And certainly in the richest country in the world.

Bryan Cranston

I believe health care is a right, not a privilege, not something only the wealthiest 1 percent can afford it should have.

Amy McGrath

The fundamental disagreement most Republicans have is they don't think health care is a right. They think it is a privilege, not a right.

Joe Biden

Single payer means something different to everyone. The way I define it is that health care is a right and not a privilege.

Peter Shumlin

Health care is a right, not a privilege. In order for that right to be shared by everyone, it's very important that we eliminate free riders. Everybody should be participating. The bigger the pool, the lower the cost, the healthier the country.

Nancy Pelosi
