Note: this isn't a "slippery slope", it's direct application of your argument. If the government gets to kill your baby because he's cost the government $X without any opportunity for recoupment, the same should be true for your grandpa.
Your statements about recoupment costs being a factor in medical care are yours and yours alone.
That was your argument for killing a baby.
Your rationale for single payer has always been that the actions of the uninsured affect those who are (driving up cost). Now you want to pretend that there is no affect?
Don't say you haven't argued that here.
Just admit your argument is an irrational, immoral mess.
