So what should someone like myself do? I guess you’re ok with people dying who may not have to if they had healthcare? How could that possibly be good for the economy?
Some hospitals and cancer centers give charity treatment to the indigent.
The ACA is here to stay until the time comes when Single Payer or Medicare for All comes to fruition.
The American people have now been "taught" that there must always be a national health care plan of one sort or another. The ACA is here, and it is widely believed that if it were to be repealed, then another plan must takes its place. People have already forgotten that before the ACA, there was a regulated free market.
If politicians had had the courage to regulate the free market, and force insurance companies to sell insurance to all people in all places, we Americans would not be stuck with the messy, expensive system we have now.
Your ideology is on/off, & illustrates it's & your favorite logical fallacy:
Quote:
black-or-white
You presented two alternative states as the only possibilities, when in fact more possibilities exist.
Also known as the false dilemma, this insidious tactic has the appearance of forming a logical argument, but under closer scrutiny it becomes evident that there are more possibilities than the either/or choice that is presented. Binary, black-or-white thinking doesn't allow for the many different variables, conditions, and contexts in which there would exist more than just the two possibilities put forth. It frames the argument misleadingly and obscures rational, honest debate.
