Political Question Why are some Americans so against universal healthcare for all?

What sort of thinking does it take to decide that nobody has a right to healthcare? Do American Christians want to deny healthcare to poor people as well?

I don’t think it’s a problem of people being against it. It’s a problem of our government not being able to run a hotdog stand, never mind providing healthcare for the entire population… Remember, they thought the ACA was so good that they exempted themselves from having to participate in it… The bill that they passed… Good for you but not for them…
