The conservative on 'The View' TV show, Jedediah Bila, said ...

On today’s ‘The View’, Whoopi Goldberg said
“If Obamacare is repealed by the GOP and there is no replacement, 33 million Americans will lose their health care."

The conservative, Jedediah Bila, said
“They don’t want health care anyway!”
following up with
“The government’s not here to take care of you!”

(She didn’t say what, in her opinion, the government’s role is)
