The reason some choose not to buy health insurance is the fact they know they will not be turned down for care in most cases. Let a few die and I bet others will be doing what they can to buy ins.

I choose to pay my $1185.00 a month and cut back on the entertainment dollars. Why should I pay and have the same treatment as the next guy that can pay for ins but chooses not too!


When I was young I never had insurance after I moved out of my parent's house. I even went for many years without car insurance. Considering how I lived, it was a pretty foolish thing to do, but that was how it went down. Of course all those who were/are purchasing insurance pay for those who don't. At some point insurance became important to me and I then worked only for outfits that offered it. Now, of course, everything is different. I need insurance, because I'm falling apart. Fortunately for now, I still work and have pretty good coverage. Life is a gamble at best, and I don't think the gov't has the right to remove that aspect.....even if it is the wise thing to do.
