Free healthcare and medication have divided public opinion for years. Some argue that health is a fundamental human right and the state should provide it free of charge – after all, can life really be measured in money? Others point out that “free” is an illusion, since it still means higher taxes ultimately paid by citizens. Supporters of compromise believe at least basic treatment and essential medicines should be available at no cost, while the rest remains in the commercial system. The issue is also controversial because of theories that pharmaceutical corporations block reforms, as free access would cut into their billions in profits. So is free healthcare a right, an illusion, or a dangerous utopia?
