I have great respect for Jefferson, but he was a slave owner, so I guess he would know a thing or two about profiting from the labor of others.
But that is beside the point, the overwhelming majority of people covered under a government plan would be paying taxes into the plan. You, among others, seem to have it backwards, as if a few folk would fund it, while everyone else just sort of sits around doing nothing. Will some people who do not contribute taxes benefit, absolutely, but they represent a small minority – I can deal with that.
