none of it remained!
Thanks for your efforts!

I can bet she's mostly concerned that a person of color will sit next to her in her doctor's waiting room. I sincerely doubt she wants to let her next-door neighbor go without care. She imagines (wrongly) that everyone who will be getting insurance through this program is either black or latino--someone from another neighborhood, you know.

for a while. Charles Gibson brought in up in 2009.

GIBSON: But let me ask a basic question, which may sound silly and naive. But we've got 46 million people who are uninsured in this country.

OBAMA: Right.

GIBSON: And one of your goals, one of the goals of health care reform is to get those 46 million people insured.

OBAMA: Right.

GIBSON: We only have X number of doctors in the country. If you add 46 million people to the insurance rolls, you can't get an appointment now, Mr. President. How are you going to get an appointment then, when there's 46 more million people competing for that doctor's time?

I just don't understand how anyone could actually have that view.

want to be inconvenienced by the rest of us who may need to see a doctor. It's repulsive.

their logic. If that makes any sense. I do not understand why the non-wealthy elite would willingly fight against their best interest.

more scholarships & full student loan debt forgiveness for med school, nursing school, dental school, undergrad pre-med

hypocrites would be celebrating Obamacare as a job creator - think of how many more medical professionals of all levels we'll need.

Confront them with facts, they'll think you're a liar, or that "you don't understand" - they evaluate information based mostly on who told them, and whether the item aligns with their beleif system or not.

it would be completely empty in there. Any original thought would soon die of loneliness.

I know people like this. They're parrots. That's the extent of their thinking, repeating what their masters have told them over and over again, hoping to get a cracker.

Which is why I don't get how someone who comes off as fairly decent person in that regards could actually think that way... And I think I got her when I pointed it out to her, and that's why she shut down. She realized exactly what she was saying how disgusting it was. But then some weird sheep-like mode kicked in and she forgot what she realized just the day before.

and the combination was enough to reboot her stinkin' thinkin'.

Such is the power of propaganda on shallow thinkers.

she learned how to stop worrying and love letting Fox do her thinking for her

Having ERs clogged up with people with toothaches is not good for anybody.

Even if she doesn't need to use the ER, she's still paying for the inefficient treatment.

"worried that more people getting insurance would lead to her having to wait longer to see a doctor"

When I've run into it. Do these people realize how harsh and cold and self-centered that "worry" is?

great insurance at a price that even the poorest among could afford. I'm curious if they would be against it then for the same concern about waiting. I'm going to pose that question to someone next time they say it, just to see where that goes.

"Christian duty," assuming she claims to be a Christian. How could she deny her fellow human beings their chance at health care?
