hehe, a Democrat. Because I don't mind helping those in life-threatening situations without prejudice to their ability to pay. I didn't know Democrats had a corner on that market.

"I just value my money more than a stranger's life." That's fine: we simply disagree. I don't see what the big difference is between that statement and "...that you value money more than human life." But that's fine too.

At the end of the day, you'd rather not pay for health insurance for others. I think I'd agree. I'd STOP at saying that I'd rather a stranger die than I (as a part of society, not me directly) have to pay for it. You wouldn't have any problem with that statement.

But calling me a Democrat (which is, let's be honest, a four-letter word on FR for the most part) isn't going to accomplish anything. Then again, I'm sure you don't care about that either.

Yeah, calling you a Dim was going too far.

I don't object to charities helping those who need it, I even contribute.
I just object strenuously to the government doing it or mandating it.
