This quote waiting for review.

“Healthcare reflects the moral priorities of a state more clearly than any speech. When treatment depends on status, justice is quietly abandoned. A humane system recognises health as a shared responsibility, not a market advantage. Equality in care is equality in life.”

“The doctrine of equality! … But there is no more venomous poison in existence: for it appears to be preached by justice itself, when it is actually the end of justice … "Equality to the equal; inequality to the unequal" — that would be true justice speaking: and its corollary, "never make the unequal equal".”
