They are folks who work for small businesses (or self-employed) that dont offer employer-subsidized insurance and simply cannot afford insurance on the open market at the current rates.
They are? Someone has met face-to-face with everyone one of those people and verified that? No. We are talking statistics now. We know how that goes. We all know that there are people that can only work hourly jobs w/o adequate insurance because they didn't finish school, were incarcerated (ex-felons), etc. Others are elderly who need to meet shortages for poor retirement planning or unfortunate circumstances (ripped off my online fishers/scammers, loss of life savings for spouse's death after long illness, etc.). Obviously there are cases where health care would be best provided for those who cannot provide. There is also the case where people chose to make bad decisions and if they would not have been so selfish/lazy, could have taken care of their situation. I do not want to pay for them. Period. Do I get a choice? No. Because of a bunch pansies electing people into office that…well shouldn’t be there. It's not about what is right and wrong. It's about politics. And our politics suck at best.
