One issue that has me completely confused, is the seeming overlap between people who would identify themselves as conservatives, most of whom seem to be pro-life, and yet seem to be anti-health care reform.
I wish I could find it now, but a prior linksurfing trip wound me up at some piece along the lines of; I don’t buy more car or house than I can afford, and health care should be the same. It’s a sentiment I’ve seen repeated often as this debate rages on.
I am the first to admit I’m not the brightest bulb in the box, but I am missing the connection between the two political ideologies.
How can one be pro-life, and pro dying for lack of health care? Do people who believe this think only morally bankrupt people die for lack of adequate health insurance? Do they not know how many children die for this very reason? How about infants? When is a person innocent enough, young enough, or nomable enough to warrant the protection of the pro-lifers?
I don’t get it.
If you get it, please explain.
