I'm not a Christian and I'm the asshole which is going to continually block your socialist power grab.Why is anyone surprised that there was a backlog of people needing medical care prior to the enactment of the ACA that is now finally receiving the treatment that they need to survive?
This was predicted given that there were millions who were uninsured. Needless to say this will probably decline as the backlog is eventually cleared.
In the past, those people went without or, if they were very lucky, got some degree of care from the volunteer clinics.
Bottom line here is that America should be taking care of Americans. Sadly, in the states where Rs are in power, the people are still doing without.
Bullshit. If some person arrives here legally from Botswana he may be an American in the legal sense but he's nothing to me. On Monday he's in Botswana and on Tuesday he's in New York. My duty to this person hasn't changed.
I have a form of duty to my community where we all share the same values, where we all cover each other's back, where we all say "but for the grace of god, there go I." There has to be something backing that duty other than the Feds saying "This here guy is now an American and you all owe him a duty."
Secondly, it would help your argument immensely if we didn't see Democrats showing more duty to illegal infiltrators than to American citizens. Deport those 20 million illegal infiltrators because we don't owe a duty to them. They cost us money. Take that saved money and spend in on Americans who you say we owe a duty to. Do that and you make me believe a little bit more that you actually mean what you say about duty.
Bet yer a christian.
And I KNOW you're an
