President Obama warns of progressive "purity" and "circular firing squads"

I was just kidding but I did snip out the word “our” thus sidestepped your America centric refutation. :wink:

Fair enough.

Cite? What time after the signing of the constitution was slavery supported by the majority?

It’s a bad meme that’s been going around.

In his defense, he’s probably ignoring black people’s opinions on slavery at the time. Oh wait, that’s not a defense.

You guys are shifting the goalposts. This isn’t about whether someone with a grievous injury or life-threatening illness is turned away from the ER. The question was this:

“Raise your hand if your government plan would provide coverage for undocumented immigrants.”

Everyone raised their hand IIRC. :smack:

It seems to me, they were saying that undocumented immigrants would be paying into the system and by being part of the system would mean less “free” emergency room visits.

Eta: if you’re saying that’s way too nuanced to get into a soundbite so drop it, meh maybe.

“Provide coverage” would clearly mean they could make an appointment to get medicine for their seasonal allergies or fund an expensive sleep study and CPAP machine for their sleep apnea…etc.

The plan would cover everyone, what’s wrong with that?

See, the issue here is that the MAGA folks are putting this as ONLY Illegals get health benefits- and that they are free. Both are wrong.

Yeah, and those visits to County ER cost more than general health care to us Taxpayers.

Its just cheaper and more effective to have medicare for ALL.

No one who is gettable thinks that. :rolleyes:

And it might be cheaper and more effective, but it’s not good politics, as David Axelrod is explaining right now.
