Argument #2 in Favor of Proposition 203: The Healthy Arizona Intiative


      This text of "For" argument #2 can also be found at the Arizona Secretary of State's Web site.


      ARGUMENT "FOR" PROPOSITION 203

      Sure, vote for this if you want.

      Though we may disapprove of some of the programs that Proposition 203 would fund, we heartily approve of the method of funding.

      Libertarians normally oppose the use of public monies for health care, but this case is different.

      For a change, we're talking about voluntary contributions instead of tax dollars. Arizonans are essentially "stockholders" of the Arizona Lottery, and should rightfully have a voice in how the proceeds are spent. If you want to support the health care programs in this measure, that's your right.

      In fact, this is a rather libertarian model of how to support various social programs with voluntary contributions rather than with compulsory taxes.
