not to ressurect an old post - but this thread somehow ended up in my google search results for a different topic....
but to refute the point about Conservatives being hypnocrites about health care: they did try to pass legislation to make ACA healthcare laws apply to everyone:
https://www.ijreview.com/2013/10/82911-democrats-reject-house-bill-eliminating-obamacare-exemption/
It can be speculated/argued until the end of time (which may be sooner rather later if Putin decides to launch any nukes at us) on whether or not the bill passed in the House was just a stunt or something real.....
however, it does go down in the books as the Repubs passed legislation to require congress to use the same healthcare system as the rest of us, and it was vetoed in the Dem-controlled Senate....
