Reply #20: I agree - an opt-out is morally indefensible

[WildEyedLiberal]

What's even worse are the people who defend it because they're getting some kind of sick schadenfreude kick out of the thought of "red states" opting out and suffering because of the idiocy of their Republican rulers. I want health care for ALL - even if that means covering the town hall birther fools who rage against the very thing that could end up saving their lives. The idea that "red states" are monolithic blocs of right-wing fools is ludicrous - there are easily more right-wingers, by sheer number, in California than in Georgia or Mississippi. I'm not willing to condemn poor people to death in "red states" for a cheap "I told you so" political point.
