# 2 is what gets me. There seems to be some rather odd idea here that having any portion of ones taxes go to supporting people who can't afford health insurance otherwise, even if it means that people would pay less overall for healthcare, is somehow more unfair than having each person take the personal risk of bankruptcy due to an expensive illness. There also seems to be some thinking along the lines of not having a "choice in the market" if we're all covered by the same system as if the market really provides much of a choice now.

The people without healthcare are not the ones driving this conversation. It is not about this at all.
