50 years ago, and today are very different.

50 years ago surfing meant getting a surfboard and going to the beach.

Checking one's mail, meant going to the mailbox and seeing what you had delivered.

Many things change in 50 years.

Maybe even a Catholic charity.

Name one specific hospital that would do this.

I have never,ever heard of alternatives from the Republican party yet.
No to Obamcare but what's the alternative?

As for the link someone provided,I still don't see a plan.

That donation can for little Jennifer`s cancer treatment that sits on the counter at the convenience store? That`s their healthcare plan.

Exactly. Clearly, if he has this condition, then he isn't fit enough to live and should just be allowed to die and save us all the trouble. Social Darwinism.

I'm being sarcastic, of course, but I suspect more people think this way than they're willing to admit.

Would he not matter since he's outside a uterus?

Amazing... a whole page of liberal talk that is totally pointless because they didn't read the entire first two pages...

Ignoring the strange exception of this OP's example, do you really think that charity hospitals actually absorb the cost of free medical care?

What sand pit have you stuck your head in?

"free medical care" is passed on to the rest of the "consumers" in higher prices and higher insurance premiums.

So in effect WE HAVE A DE FACTO NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN except not everyone contributes to keep it up.

1st implement the "mandate" then go after the cost structure just like MA is doing at the present time.

start making people pay for their so called "free health care" instead of passing the costs on to everyone else.
