I just don't want the United States government to force tax payers to pay for it. A public option that didn't require funding from tax dollars would be great, single payer would be great if that single payer wasn't the US tax payers.
I hear a lot of people saying that conservatives like myself don't want people to have health coverage which is completely false. I want all US citizens to be healthy and have access to affordable health care, I just don't want my hard earned tax dollars to be spent on it because I work to pay for my own health insurance and that's not cheap. I'm by no means rich, I shouldn't have to subsidize people who may not even want health insurance in the first place.
Call me greedy or heartless, I don't really care because it's not the federal government's place to provide health insurance for people.
NB4 someone doesn't realize that their insurance premiums pay for others people's health care and other people's insurance premiums pay for their health care

I don't think it matters to the people who stand up for corporate interests before their own. They're a lost cause.
Who do you think pays for the uninsured now? The taxpayer. It's a lose-lose in the best of times. I would absolutely love affordable health care. It doesn't exist for the middle class.

It would be great, but it would be impossible. Public means government. That's like saying government out of Medicare. There has to be some type of funding, at least in the start up phase.

It is cheaper to pay your taxes that cover it, than to pay for your own private care.
Everyone does have the freedom to pay for private insurance for themselves. Nothing is free.
