Yes, you get care. But it is NOT free and if you don't have insurance, you pay or at least get billed through the nose!

They want to "cull the herd." It's just the legal version of what that asshole, Dueterte, is doing in thr Philippines. They know they can't get away with sending out hordes of assassins on motorcycles to kill off poor people under the guise of eliminating drug addicts. So, they killl them off by making health care unaffordable for them.

These self righteous republican greed monsters call themselves "Christians" and ignore this:

Matthew 25:41 “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; 43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’

44 “Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’ 45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ 46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”


You liars will pay someday!!

There are all kinds of things that can happen to you, none of which are your fault, that can give you pre-existing conditions. Apparently that crew has been lucky enough to pay for their healthcare out of pocket so the PEC doesn't get documented.
