#1 PAYING FOR HEALTHCARE
In modern, industrialized countries throughout the world, health care is fully or in part funded by their democratic governments, and ultimately taxpayers. In America, conservatives know this as "socialism." Fear (a later entry) is essential to conservative thinking, and when it comes to healthcare, universal coverage means our doctors would turn stupid, our hospital's state of the art equipment would break, and everyone magically gets sick--flooding our waiting rooms.
When conversing with a conservative on univeral health care, or even health care reform, it's important to understand the commonalities of their rhetoric. In an attempt to discount UHC as socialism, conservatives will imidiately begin fabricating statistics that reveal how bad health care systems are in other countires with UHC, though it is completely contrary to what their citizens would tell you. Often a conservative will claim that people should take better care of themselves. Pay close attention to this, as you will find that at least half of the conservatives saying this are fat disgusting pigs. Another arguement would be that our children are going to be stuck paying for healthcare. Though healthcare costs continue to rise, forcing everyone to pay more, the mere thought of "junior" be stuck with bill is too much for a conservative to withstand. You see taxes to a conservative, is the same as throwing away freedom. The Postal Service, the Military, FBI, CIA, police, and fireman are just some of the examples of services conservatives don't want to be burdeoned with paying for privately, however paying for healthcare is un-American.

So the youth should spend a sizable section of their working life paying for the massive amounts of medical treatments that will be needed as we to into the future,as the medical industrial complex denies them a reasonable death and only let's them refuse food or drink(if thyeve signed something that blocks it) in order to halt life(because all the hospital tech not only is $$$ buy it does work at keeping people alive-regardless of their quality of life)

While we conservatives DON'T want young people,poor people be refused,until reform of the entire medical system(and is would be placing it outside normal type of decisions to make profit that result in seeing the elderly people in their last few weeks of dying as a goldmine), we refuse to pay taxpayer money into a blackhole
