Yes. Like water. A luxury. That is what I said. And I said people should die without it. i said that too.

Did you even bother to read what i wrote?

Again - how many articles can you dig up of a person in California dying because he/she was refused care for not having money? Which hospital refused to admit a patient for not having money. Which ambulance was turned away?

Where are these stories? Hist - they don’t exist. Because the current system provides the uninsured and indigent vital care. So the construct “that some people just need to learn to live (or die) without” is utterly absurd and does not apply to the current system.

You equated it with living in paradise even though it was unsustainable.

So the uninsured and indigent are subsidized. Don’t you think it would be cheaper on everyone if they were covered with something that could provide them preventative care so they didn’t end of in the most expensive of places?
