答案
Healthcare is one of the basic needs for individuals. When some poor people are seriously ill, they may not have money to see a doctor and get proper treatment. Therefore, some people think healthcare, as an important welfare, should be free for everyone. Free healthcare can maintain the stability of a society. Imagine if an individual gets seriously ill, but cannot afford the hospital fees, what they can do is only wait to die. However, if their country provides free healthcare services to nationals, they may get help and recovered without charge. The patient is grateful to the country, and then has a sense of belonging. As a result, they are proud as a national of his country and love it more. For example, the NHS in Britain ensures every British citizen’s free healthcare and that is one reason why the British are, in general, happier than people in other countries.
Some other people may argue that free healthcare services can be very expensive if it is applied to every citizen. To pay for the healthcare services to the whole nation, the government has to levy taxes to collect money. From this point of view, it is actually not free, because people have already paid for the service. When they are sick, they will get the treatment that their taxes deserve . Based on such analysis, it seems reasonable that not everyone wants to pay healthcare tax, and solely pay for their treatment when they are in hospital.
Although people may not pay taxes for healthcare at the expense of paying their own treatment individually, as a human society in which a government takes responsibility to keep its stability and improve people’s wellbeing, it is better for everyone to contribute a bit when they are in good health and enjoy "free" healthcare services when they are old and in need.
