...That's a fundamental misunderstanding of how insurance works. Many people live their lives without ever receiving a net subsidy. Most, in fact....


Ever been to an emergency room chock full of folks who don't really care how insurance works? They are sick and/or damaged and need attention now. They have a RIGHT to medical attention...insurance or not

They mow lawns, haul your garbage and take care of your mother in the nursing home...they can't afford health insurance of any kind.
Every civilized country in the world provides socialized health care for EVERYBODY....except the USA.

It's coming soon to a neighborhood near you.

Yes, it is a tax on the health care system to provide wider coverage. It is the law of the land.

Are you also opposed to taxes going towards public schools? Do you think low-income people should be denied education?

Right wingers have a very screwed up moral code. No surprise, that it almost always effectively becomes virtually indistinguishable from racism.
