Would you give up social security for universal health care?
Advertisements [?]
My husband has this hair-brained idea that we could concede to phasing out Social Security if in return we had universal health care. (Please don't yell at me. It's just a thought.) He's thrown out this idea with some of our friends and had very mixed reactions. In general, our younger friends,in their mid-30s and younger, think it's a pretty good idea, but those over that age think he's completely insane. Personally, I think it's interesting and a little appealing, but it's not likely to work. So my question for DU is, if you had to choose one, which would you pick?
