That's kind of the credo of both parties:
Republicans: Nobody can have it because 1 person might use it fraudulently.
Democrats: Everybody can have it, we don't care how many people use it fraudulently so long as 1 person is being saved by it.
The democrats have the moral high ground on that one.
This principle is what America was founded upon.
Better to allow 1 guilty person go free than imprison 1 innocent person.
Anyone who disagrees, assumes they'll never been the 1 innocent person.
This basic principle is the basis for the political divide in America.
