Pro-life conservatives do not pledge to protect and preserve a woman’s right to choose (to murder her innocent unborn child). Pro-life conservatives do not say abortion should be legal and safe. Pro-life conservatives do not say that Roe v Wade is settled law and should be defended. Pro-life conservatives do not say that underage girls should receive abortions and if her parents do not approve, she should seek a judge’s permission... and a pro-life conservative would not defend abortion as a constitutional right EVER!!
And a pro-Life and Liberty conservative would never push a government healthcare program on a free citizenry. EVER!!
The man is a FREAKING ABORTIONIST/SOCIALIST!!
And I AM a nice guy... until people start pissing down my back and try to tell me it’s raining.
You are absolutely right. “Pro-life conservatives” do not do that. Libertarians do.
In a serious vein, though, I really am curious. I think the problem of free riders is a serious one, and it is one of the things — besides plaintiffs lawyers like Edwards — which is driving up the cost of health care for all of us.
It seems to me that you have only two choices to solve it. (1) you mandate insurance or (as Romney and Heritage proposed) give people the alternative of posting some kind of bond; or (2) tell hospitals they can turn people away if they want, or kick people out when they can no longer pay. I don’t think anyone has the political will to do that. Maybe there’s a third option, some kind of charity care system.
Have you thought about this issue? Can you think of a solution that would be “conservative”?
