Oh are you talking about the emergency room scam?
If you want that system you can have it but I'd opt out of that too.

actually forcing either side to do things against their interests is what makes it a bad idea IMO.

The entire problem originates with government illegally and immorally forcing entities to provide goods and services.

I agree! If uninsured and underinsured people would stop going to the hospital every time their lives are threatened, it would make the whole thing much easier. Unfortunately you can't get people to stop seeking help when they're dying, and telling doctors to turn people away because they might not be able to pay is unethical.

Changing what someone says doesn't help your case.

You think the government pays back the hospital for the emergency room services they provide to people who don't pay?
They don't. The government forces the hospitals to provide that service as a form of charity.

Even for the hospitals that have to eat the loss, who do you think pays for it? I'm surprised I have to explain this to such an intrepid free marketeer as yourself.

Right up until Obamacare, folks who refused, for whatever reason, to have health insurance were labeled by the right as leeches who needed to be compelled to pay for the services they were currently stealing from hard-working Real Americans.
As soon as mandates were part of Obamacare, they all did a complete 180.
I'm surprised Republicans aren't all wearing neck-braces from that.
