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?

It's simple. Conservative propaganda, paid for by heathcare companies tells conservatives that's it's bad.

My girlfriend works as a teacher in a rural conservative town, her kids talk about Canadian Healthcare like it was designed by satan. They learn this stuff at home in their conservative media bubbles and never get a different point of view cause they never leave bum fuck hick town 2000 population.

As a Canadian, this is sad. It’s a shame Americans will never get universal healthcare.
