In the post directly above you Josh is saying that very thing. That most conservative groups would reject it out of principle. Nit-pick my exact language all you want. I believe it is entirely accurate to say that most conservative Anabaptist groups do not respond to the same economic incentives as...

I specifically said that is what I would do. I did not say that is what most conservatives would do. Soloist and Josh said most conservatives don't have insurance, not that most of them refuse free employer provided coverage.

Tax credits for dependents works well. i believe Poland and Hungary have implemented some successful policies to encourage families, i don’t know details. Hungary has heavily subsidised having families, ranging from childcare to dire...

For the sake of curiosity, if a CA happens to be in a job in which health insurance is one of the provided benefits. Do they refuse to sign up and accept it? Even if it is paid for? For example, my wife's employer provides here with two health insurance options: Option 1: High-deductible plan that h...
