Have you send this gentleman a check to help him out? Or, like most Dems, are you in favor of spending other people's money via taxes and not yours, via charity?

Surveys show that Republicans (conservatives) consistently give more money to charity than Democrats (liberals).

This health bill fiasco is not about helping people. It is about income redistribution and the expansion of the dependent class that then vote Democrat ad infinitum.

Much like the rest of the Dems, you are become irrelevant because you can't have an intelligent, reality based conversation. It is sad.
Reality is the Republican Party is in disarray and has become more irrelevant than the Democrats(though they are dropping too). Reality is NOT "you can afford insurance if you work hard" or "hey, there are charity organizations for you to get money for cancer treatment". Reality is someone making $9.00/hour for 40 hours makes too much for most/all government programs. At that rate, after taxes, if you are nearing half of your salary just for healthcare(assuming you can't get it through work) then it is about 1/4 of your total income of the year. That is reality.

But adding to the cost of doing business will make us less competitive. I agree, we need some modifications to our present system but the government running health care is not one of them. Tort Reform (Attorneys make hundreds of millions), Improve pre existing condition rules, portability rules, allow interstate competition, address the cost of illegal immigrants on health care( and schools). The government will never process claims better than BC/BS but the SEIU will make sure that this becomes a government function.

The US government is the most efficient organization ever to grace this earth. Every program is dipped in kindness from the benevolent heart of elected officials. When competing against private sector forces they are always (99.44%) more efficient and compassionate.

How could a reasonable person expect anything less from our government. Our governments track record is impeccable. The good citizens never expect something for nothing or expect their neighbor to pay for their services or benefits. It is this gracious character that allows them to elect benevolent officials in this, the greatest democracy on earth.
