As Earth was pulled down the gravity well of this dead star, our relative time would become increasingly faster compared to the rest of the universe. From our vantage point the time of the rest of the universe would slow down and all but stop, while we would experience millions of years of time passing relative to the rest of space. It would be like that episode of <3, Death, & Robots with the freezer civilization. We'd probably come up with FTL travel before our people could be turned into cosmic spaghetti, and be able to escape the Black Hole's event horizon.

> On the contrary, everyone has a right to purchase at prevailing market rates

Except that is a deal agreed by both parties. In this case the deal is only agreed by one side (the government). The labourer has the right to refuse if they deem their value is not worth the labour.

Consider you currently do a job that pays 100k pa, but now its government run and since the minimum wage is 50k pa, they pay you that. Would you still keep working there?

This is just a broad example, I have no idea what the rates that the doctors are demanding vs what the government is willing to provide (and it makes sense as per the other commenters that the doctors will try to take advantage and jack up the price than what they usually charge because the government would pay if it was a 2 way agreed deal)

> The original 2004 agreement, the Safe Third Country Act, requires migrants to make an asylum claim in the first &quot;Safe&quot; country they reach, whether it is the US or Canada.

> Mr Biden&#039;s administration has also proposed to crack down on asylum seekers at the US southern border with Mexico by making it harder for migrants to claim asylum once Covid border controls lift in May. The proposal has met backlash from human rights groups.
