But theres the rub. They DON’T
Nobody in this country is denied care
Not everybody can go to a doctor for every sniffle, but nobody is turned away
Back to the restaurant analogy. Those with coverage may be able to eat at Ruths Chris steak houses while those without may have to subside on ramman noodles, but nobody starves
First, those of us with coverage aren’t exactly at Ruth’s Chris, most of us.
Second, ‘nobody is turned away’ isn’t exactly true. Yes, everyone can go to the ER, but not everybody can get the medication they need, or the ongoing medical care they need. And people who can get care are often bankrupted by it.
I’d say people are starving, or at the very least, suffering from malnutrition.
