Congress Passes Socialized Medicine and Mandates Health Insurance -In 1798 ...government provided healthcare service was to be paid for by a mandatory tax on the maritime sailors (a little more than 1% of a sailor’s wages), the same to be withheld from a sailor’s pay and turned over to the government by the ship’s owner. The payment of this tax for health care was not optional. If a sailor wanted to work, he had to pay up. ...was also the first to mandate that privately employed citizens be legally required to make payments to pay for health care services Newsflash: Founders favored "government run health care"
