"executing minors and the mentally retarded -> no health care for poor people who can't afford it, maybe they should be executed"

I'm not necessarily against "health care for all", but those two things are not at all the same

If society does not decide to levy taxes in order to provide health care for some people, it is not at all the same as deliberately killing those people. Not at all. Please don't use such extreme rhetoric.

It's not the same, but it's not that different. They both die because of lack of empathy and indifference.
