Helping those they are supposed to help? Results may vary."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

Originally posted by JimL View PostStop fooling yourself Jed, the government allowed for over 20 million people to get health care that would otherwise have gone without it. This new tax reform, I mean tax cut for the greedy/wealthy, is going to knock 13 million of them back off the rolls. Thats the conservative way. Somehow christians align with that way."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Indeed, your challenge here feels like you're trying to change the subject in order to distract from the weaknesses of your arguments. Particularly because, as an atheist and therefore rejector of Catholicism, it seems like the onus should be on you to answer your own question.

People decide not to get insurance mostly because they believe that they can't afford it. When they realize that through the ACA, aka Obamacare, they can afford it, then they are happy to be able to get it. Thats why another 1 million signed up for it this year. And if Trump and republicans like yourself would just get out of the way and stop trying to undermine it, we would all be better off.
