One thing that Republican's do agree on for those without health insurance is that their best bet is a firm belief in the afterlife. Fox News will be releasing a list of talking points for Republican politicians to emphasize to the likely voters in their districts on how this belief will be a sufficient to address the needs of those without health insurance.

Do you think some people would perhaps say, "I would rather bequeath money to my offspring rather than spend my life savings on treatments that aren't going to improve or lengthen my quality of life much."
That's why socialized medicine is such a threat to my personal culture and way of life. It usurps the right of people and families to make these hard choices, choices that are inevitably connected to their beliefs, religion, and philosophy on life. We don't share a common religion or culture in the United States. How could we ever agree on who should be eligible for treatment and who should not?
As foolish and uneducated as the buyer can be in a free market economy, I still respect that the buyer should have the ultimate sovereignty even when it comes to healthcare. I see people everyday who refuse surgery that should be having it. But it's the patients responsibility to make that decision and live with the consequences.
