You would sing another tune if you had a disabled child. Its just anti-social savagery to not feel any compassion for the disabled and tell them to die because you dont want to pay taxes.

So who do you think pays for all the uninsured people who go to the ER now? You support a system where anyone can just decide whether they want insurance or not and then get treated at extremely expensive ER units when needed, paid for by all of us.

So you dont want to mandate that people have insurance, and think anyone should be getting ER care.

I believe that you also insisted this was true too when responding to one of my posts. I take note that you avoid it now. (start with post 5)

I'm fine with hospitals turning people away, or if they choose to treat someone they have to eat the costs, not the taxpayer.

The only people I want my tax dollars to go towards helping are those who gave something to their country, like veterans. Too many poor people in this country are basically parasites.

Geez, you seem really angry.

And you're aware that many of those 14 million that would lose their coverage are rural conservative Trump voters.......right?

And how would that work? You want to tattoo medical statuses on people's forehead? In a car accident, its a life or death situation. Its impossible to go look for people's medical status at that point. "they have to eat the costs"? What does that mean? If they cant pay, everyone pays. Your third world solution is not an option. No person with an iota of compassion or sanity believe that could work.
