(25,406 posts)People who were lucky enough to be healthy, with no chronic medical conditions, and able to find employment, would be OK. But those less lucky would be doomed to poverty, misery and possibly an early death. You become disabled and unable to work? Screw you. You are diagnosed with a chronic medical condition that is very expensive to treat? Screw you. You accidentally become pregnant at the age of 19 (not difficult because of the lack of availability of contraception)? Screw you, drop out of college and carry the baby to term. There would be an impoverished underclass that would grow over time and there would never be any Government money to help them because God forbid taxes should be increased.
