  1. “health care is not a right. It is earned.”

    Just remember the above the next time Republicans try to tell you we’re a pro-life state and we care deeply about mom’s and babies.

    1. Indiana MAGAts have never been pro-life. They are pro-birth. What happens after the baby is born is simply political fodder.

    2. Exactly Joe. Basically Republican platform is to scare people about immigrants, trans people and cities (Indy in indiana’s case) to get the votes and then cut health care, women’s rights, education, environmental regulations, taxes on ultra wealthy and of course anything dear leader wants/needs. They are absolute embarrassment.

    3. If you want universal healthcare, be ready to pay for it. Everyone will pay and should pay.
      But even in societies where there is universal healthcare, many still carry private healthcare insurance also.
      They need too!

      Healthcare is not NOT free. It’s very expensive. Everyone needs to understand that,
      Anyone that thinks that just taxing the rich more will pay for everything, such as healthcare, food, housing, and education is fooling themselves.
      Everyone needs to contribute whether rich or poor.

    4. Keith, we pay the most and don’t come close to getting the best health outcomes. Why would we not look at how other countries get better results for less money and copy from that?

      Other than, of course, a significant chunk of the population would rather not see people they deem “undesirable” have the same as them?

      Yet again, you’re getting played by the folks with the money.

    5. Joe B.
      Out culture is much different.
      Our individual life styles are not nearly as healthy as the Europeans.
      On top of that the Canadians and Europeans face significantly longer wait times unless it is for simple procedures,
      There a reason why Canadians with the financial means come to the U.S. for testing, procedures, and major surgeries.
      I personally do not want the government in charge of health care.
      We pay the most but we’ve also got the best.

    6. Twice as many people smoke in Europe than the US and they get better outcomes than us. Meanwhile, here in the United States, you navigate a maze of pre-approvals and must seek permission from insurance to do anything.

      We don’t have the best healthcare in the world by any measure. If it was so great, we wouldn’t have people cheering at the public execution of an insurance CEO.

  2. Cutting back health care for Indiana’s neediest while at the same time granting massive tax breaks to giant corporate data centers: This shows the priorities of the Indiana General Assembly’s Republican supermajority.
