I can buy a three month diabetic drug from Canada for less then a one month supply costs in the U.S. I live in a Republican area where all you hear is I don't want the government in my health care. This is also one of the poorest counties in the state. If they are sick or injured they run to the emergency room. They can't pay so the insured end up covering the cost. Want to shut these people up? Just say if people can't show the ability to pay, doctors and hospitals should not be required to treat them and pass the cost on to others.
Just let them die. Watch how quick the room go's quiet.
