"It's too bad that your friend has a disease, but I'd rather have them pay for it than pass the bill off to a bunch of innocent people who aren't sick."
His friend can't pay for it, so what you're essentially saying is you'd rather have his friend, and people who can't afford their medical care in general, die rather than have others subsidize healthcare through their taxes (or any other way). In other words, because of the current cost of healthcare, only the obscenely-rich get to live while the rest die off. That's just incredibly cruel, vile, and disgusting, but sadly, hardly a minority opinion.
