Actually, if it is done right, no. I believe in privitazation. Let charities take care of the poor. Reduce the tax burden on the people from the ineffective, bloated bureaucracy that is the government. It is a proven fact that when you reduce taxes, people save more and contribute more to charities. Charities are FAR more efficient with money than the government ever will be. Let charities take care of the people who cannot or will not take care of themselves. Let everyone else determine who they want to use for insurance.
There was an overall philosophy I wanted to instill. This philosopy was valid over a wide range of issues, like Social Security, Healthcare, etc. It is impossible to address every issue in a campaign. You promote a philosophy, so that people know how you will address ALL issues as they arise.
