Democrats need to visit family practice offices in ultra poor areas and they will find that they are packed because the people don't have to pay the Dr. to take care of little Jose's sniffles. The poor are abusing the medical care system RIGHT NOW and we are adding MILLIONS MORE of them. In the end, the children from poor families will see the Dr. far more often than families where both parents work because the latter group can't afford to wait several hours to see the Doctor.
