Should Health care be free?

Hi Friends, today I have to update some information in my health insurance and I think medical care should be free for everybody and health care is a basic human right. We are paying taxes and people must have some benefits for paying them. In my opinion all doctors and nurses must be employed by the government, like in Canada for example, and all treatments is given according to need. Money should play no part in deciding who gets treatment and who doesn't. Private doctors often prescribe medicine for patients who are not really sick. They make more money that way. It's also what many of their patients want. If a doctor refuses to give unnecessary treatment, the patient will just go to another doctor. So when market forces are applied to health care, it leads to waste, and poorer patients who really need help have to wait longer treatment. In my opinion the private medical system has problems. How it can be improved? And do you think medical treatment should be free? Why? Stay well and be safe
