I would argue from a straight ecom math standpoint that the economy would tank if they had to provide health benefits is rediculas. But if I go ahead and grant you that point can I put you in the let the frickers die group?

Well, stick around for this and next year, watch our economy tank at worst or stagnate at best and then decide if I'm actually that far off base.

What do you mean "let the frickers die"? There's a world of people who don't have healthcare or even food and shelter. If you're not donating every penny of your disposable income to them, then you're for letting those frickers die. If that seems like a stupid argument, it's only because it is.

We have limited resources. We cannot take care of every person on the earth. Pretending we can is stupid. So the argument is about the most efficient and moral distribution of resources. Not "let the frickers die." Idiot.
