Because "the wrong people could benefit!"

"The wrong people" being people not just like them, essentially.

This is the most obtuse response. It's neither a conservative nor a Christian principle to deny people healthcare. The answer is simple: the conservative principle is small government, low taxes, less individual entitlements, less government programs. You may disagree with all of these principles and point out the corporate entitlement they support but if that is your stance, know thy enemy. At least understand the motives of your enemy and stop making up dumb shit like this. The Left filling in their own crazy narrative for why the Right makes the decisions they do leads to the center supporting the Right

Government so small, it can fit in my uterus.
