   You'd better readjust your reader because this thread. which you began, is   
   about prisoners not health care. But who stands on technicalities?

   I don't know where you call home, but in the US Bernie Sanders and his naive   
   socialist followers demand corporations pay higher wage so not to need   
   government services. Have you been following that?  How does that square with   
   your position which is the    
   opposite; ie. save corporations health care expense money?   
      
   You are pretty much like that 'reform communist' in that you confuse things to   
   fit your delusions. Take your supposed Cuban communist success example,   
   please. I already posted this to you previously.   
      
   I'll grant you, Cuban government health care is more efficient. One reason is   
   that doctors are paid slave labor wages. In other words comrade, they are   
   exploited by their employer, the state. The US prisoners you see as   
   'exploited' probably get paid more    
   than Cuban doctors. So why are you and your fellow comrades not complaining   
   about that? What about the rest of the Cuban population? How much are they   
   paid by the state employer?
