It doesn't have to be one way or the other. That's what's lost in the fray of all this hyper-partisan horse$h!t.
If I had it my way, government wouldn't be involved in healthcare other than to put very few necessary regulatory restraints on it - but as few as possible. But answer this question:
Is it morally superior to take healthcare coverage away from millions, make insurance premiums 3-5 times more expensive and deductibles 5-10 times more expensive for millions of others, and tax the hell out of the rest in order to provide subsidies so that 22-24 million people with "pre-existing conditions" can have health coverage?
