I agree with you air_ogi.
People who claim one reason not to have universal health is because illegals will take advantage of the system.
Even with universal health care, illegals will live under the existing status quo — they will go to the emergency rooms.
Conservatives don’t want to say it… but they really want the system to reject ill patients who show up at the emergency room without the ability to pay.
As a developed, advanced country, do we have the stomach to turn away patients who will die on our streets. If that’s what conservatives want, then let them say it out loud.[/quote]
I agree with air-ogi and I agree with you now. However, if the democrats want us to have a righteous system let them come out and say it now too…then let the Republicans shoot that down openly.Dust settles where it may. I don’t trust your party enough to say “lets do bad policy because it will work out in the long run”. No way.
