Guess who tends to need Healthcare most often, the poor and the elderly, two groups that don't tend to have much income to spend on health premiums.
But don't worry it's not like 'you' will ever be poor or elderly so you shouldn't care about health coverage for those groups.
Spot on. This person isn't playing devils advocate, they're playing self defence of their own cognitive dissonance.
Huh??? I never even presented my own ethical position. We were talking about TECHNICALITIES here. Suddenly u'r accusing me of holding a shitty ethical position? Fuck right off.
I rlly try to be as polite as possible online. But jeez r u guys fkin stupid. We're having a logical argument about technicalities for fuck's sake. I said a thousand times that I support single payer universal healthcare. I love it, and I don't want to lose it. I'm just pointing at the economic exchange here and how it is different from a non-universal multi payer healthcare system. That's it. But NOOOOOOO how could I do that??? Ugh
