If you want to boil down the position of Republicans on healthcare reform, this from Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, in response to a question about the uninsured, says it all: "Well, they don't go without health care, because they can just go to the emergency room."
...
And who pays the exorbitant bill once the treatment is over? It will probably wipe out the people who need the care if they have any means whatsoever. If they have no resources, it is made up from you and me, the people who do have health insurance, in the form of higher premiums or less options.
The hypocrites who whine about the costs of a 'public option' have no qualms about recommending the uninsured get the most expensive care possible. That's because their masters in the insurance industry and Big Hospital have ways of recouping those losses.
Your Republican Party: Corporations Über Alles!
