Republicans, what rationalizations do you use to legitimize taking away healthcare from people who would die without it like before ACA? ?

Do you not feel complicit in supporting politicians that will remove the ACA and allow people to have less functioning lives or die? 

It's ironic since Republicans will outwardly display support for medical Gofundme drives and community fundraising for critically ill people, yet they don't want a system that will equally help everyone, even the ones they support; they want selectively to decide who lives and who dies. 

Am I too harsh? What legitimizations did you conjure up to excuse yourself from the complicity? You write it off like they made poor choices, didn't work hard, and it's not your responsibility? Is that how you view your personal crusades that you support on Gofundme and local charity drives for your friends? They were just lazy bums who should have afforded medical, but you will offer them your handouts and charity, right? 

What am I missing? You think Republicans who resist the ACA will suddenly include everything in the ACA, like preexisting conditions and medicaid expansion? Lol. You think they even have a proper plan beyond throwaway plans? You don't really care, do you? As long as you have better health care on the backs of others paying more, you couldn't care less, could you? 

It feels good to feel you have power over everyone again, doesn't it? Lol. 

Update:

People who had preexisting conditions like diabetes who couldn't afford their insulin didn't die before ACA? Do you truly believe that a lack of medical coverage won't kill people? Amazing. 

Blame another demographic... Don't Republicans feel like that has been overplayed by now?

    People didn't just simply die before ACA!

    Obamacare didn't even insure everyone. There are still millions of people that are uninsured or who fall through the cracks.

    They didn't pay on the open market.  The open market has a monopoly on everything.
